Tobogganing hill come snowfall

Update from Grig: the mud slide is still not passable even on foot (soaking wet) and it looks like nothing can be done about it for a while.

You can always go around from the back I believe.

To Meager Creek? That's new to me. How would you go?
I think you mixed it up with the Harrison Lake slide/hot spring.

I have never heard about a reasonable way around but my point was to give you an update only.

The hot springs are closed for the remainder of the season, mainly to reduce the incentive for people to try to make their way through the mud, rocks and debris, Greinacher said. He said the mud is waist-deep in some areas and some of the large boulders that came down with the slide could shift and injure someone.

The remainder of the area, however, is still technically open, though officials are not recommending travel via the Meager Creek route.

“It is hunting season, and there’s access to the Harrison Hut at the Overseer Glacier. You could always go in through the Elaho and go back the way you came in,” Greinacher said.
