[MCR] Johnston Canyon

Was climbing in the canyon yesterday and noticed quite a few of the pillars have very fragile looking features (blobs, daggers) growing on them from the recent warm weather. 
 
These will be become very weak during the current cold snap (today and tomorrow) and are likely to collapse.  Some were small but many of them were quite large and would hit anyone standing around at the bottom of the guardrail. 
 
Heads up if you are heading in there!
 
Cheers
