This might help you get your bearings there, it's not even close to the same viewpoint, but you can get your bearings a little bit regardelss

We're looking at this cliff collapse?

Thanks for the photo. That's going to take some getting used to.

Yeah it's that same collapse, looks uglier from the ground imo. More like a dirt pile than a rock pile.

There are 3 other photos here too

Not to dismiss the aesthetic damage of the pile itself but I am more concerned about the possibility of a massive log jam forming behind it.

it seems they are making their way down to the next rock slide so far

Thanks for posting the pic, as depressing as it is. Good to see some updates from back there.

Yeah, big log jams are likely to be a continual risk for some time yet. I imagine there are still a lot of trees ready to fall over the next couple years.
