Forster Creek

Went sledding up Forster Creek on Saturday. Stayed cool throughout the day, lightly snowing, with the sun trying to poke through. We parked our sleds on the north (right hand side) of the meadow near the bottom of the headwall and skinned up a mellow creek bed and into the trees on the south facing slopes to about 2200m (at TL). We did not notice any natural or human triggered avalanche activity, cracks, or slabbing. Did not appear to be wind affected where we were. We did notice the crust layer down about 20cm of fresh but it appeared to bond well as we ski cut a 33 degree open treed slope at the top and had no reactivity, only minor sluffing. Overall great day.
