been up there in the summer - what an absolutely stunning valley. are you going to stay at the Dave White hut in Forster Creek or are you flying (or touring) to the Olive Hut? we're thinking of maybe going to make some turns from the Dave White hut this week.

I believe we are sledding in from the forest creek side to Olive hut. I have never beenthere but the guys I am going with have and know the route. I'll just go where they tell me. Apparently there is a no sled rule in there so we will ditch the sled somewhere and walk the last bit.

yeah, you'll probably be ditching the sleds at the base of the headwall below the glacier and touring from there. be pumped because there is some incredible and spectacular terrain back there.

Been in there a few times too in all four seasons. The Olive Hut is a gorgeous little hut. The outhouse has to qualify for one of the top 10 views from a shitter. Went in with Cam once before he fell on his head. Who are you going with? When are you going?

I'm going in with Andy Holmes & his dad and a chick named Liz. We are going to the Dave White hut on March 11 then to the Olive hut on 12th 13th 14th. On the 15th they are going back down to the DWH for a few more days and I will bail out to come back to work. Apparently you can sled to within about 10 skin from the hut so I'll leave my sled there.
