Slalok North Face - Stonecrop glacier

[matosan]

I hear someone skied the stonecrop glacier on the north face of Slalok late last week. (Slalok is above Joffre Lakes off Duffey Highway in BC) must have been fun. i really want to ski that line this year. anyone know who it was?

I know some folks who have done it and apart from a steep bit at the bottom, they said it wasn't that bad, no worse than Currie N face. However, I wouldn't have done it last week. I have been up there in better storm cycles than last week's and seen a crown line across the entire face, visible from the road. It was like one metre deep Still, one of those things you always want to do, isn't it?

 

Make a weekend out of it and do N face of Tzil too Report back if you live

Granted this is fall, and shearing to the ice is a different scenario, but you get a sense of the scale
