[From Mark Darville] - Our morning started off on the Tsileuh Creek FSR and stopping at 283m thanks to the first deep water we came across due to the risk that the dirt might soften later in the day causing us to get stuck. So it was an extra 1km from where we initially wanted to stop. The SS starting point is non existent due to a major boulder field/creek crossing landslide. So the most you could [go to] is 415m.

The beginning of the FSR plod was normal, to be expected with some of the Coquihalla range poking out. Things were going fine until 590m when all hell broke loose as thick alder bushwacking began. This essentially went on for 4.5km. Matt had his snowshoes on at 1000m whereas we opted to put ours on at 1100~m.
