Was in Evan Thomas today, and was slightly surprised to find a fridge sized piece of dagger on the approach hill to the climbs Snowline and Moonlight. At the base of the climbs was the rest of the pillar carnage, coming from the 3rd pitch on Moonlight. Presently, there is no more significant dagger hazard on these climbs, but it would have been a scary place to be when these decided to come down! These cold snaps with the bluebird sunny days are a great time to avoid overhead hazard.
