No but a better question is "Has anyone gone in to Hospital Creek and climbed to the top of the end of the Canyon on the left corner and dropped to Glenogle?"

Always wanted to try this after looking at it on Google Earth. Scared of that area though, after my son was caught in an avy a few years ago.

The last time I was there was the first time I was there. Good place to die IMO. Nothing but continuous avy paths all the way in.

Been up in Hospital on a blue bird and been pretty tempted to drop in.

I've done it, not this season though. My friend Shadam rides those places all the time. Lots of Avy's in there for sure.

Went in April 7th up the Glenogle FSR road. Rock slide at 2.5km we had to move rocks by hand and walk our sleds up and over, not too bad but would have stopped a lot of people. When you get started on the single track the big slide paths have slid huge!!!! could not pass them so rode down onto the creek and went in and out of the creek numerous times getting on and off the trail a few times until you cross the creek at the end and start riding up into the area to the waterfall. Most of the big stuff has come down but visibility was so poor when we got to the waterfall it had slid but all the snow on the left side has not yet. We had to respect the mountain and called it a day at that point. Still had a fun ride, always an adventure here! Maybe try going through Hospital on a clear day in a bit.

Been there once. Climbed over 20+ slide paths in the spring. Turned around and headed back to find +1 on the way back. Clock is ticking in that place IMO.
