Spearhead in a day. Snow was pretty solid requiring ski crampons for almost all climbs. Beautiful day with occasional light winds. Saw a few days old broken cornices and small wet loose from warmer weather but no evidence on instabilities Friday. Skied down and around the rapel on overlord rapel is definitely longer than years past >15m.

Biggest issue was coming down Olympic run below green chair as it has been torn up by snow cats and was a refrozen mess so care was taken with a few muddy portages.
