I sled accessed Red Line basin via the McDonald Creek FSR on Saturday 12 Nov 2022 with friends. Coverage was 0-50cm of well settled powder with little wind effect. Ski penetration ~15cms. Of course, early season conditions demanded gentle skiing with plenty of sharks to be avoided. However, we were pleasantly surprised with the quality of the skiing.
There was evidence of a loose dry cycle to sz1 during the storm that deposited the current snow.
