Climbed St Nicholas, Mt Olive and Mt Gordon from Bow Hut on June 20th. Good step kicking with ankle to boot top penetration and the very occasional post hole. Coverage on the icefield is good at present with few crevasses open and not much evidence of bridges sagging. The only avalanches that I noted were triggered by cornice collapses or serac calvings.

Happy trails,
