Low-vis fun at steep creek. Climb up was smooth with a thin layer of good snow on the skin track. Noticeable dust on crust in the trees until approx 1800m. South aspects with more noticeable crust. Above 1800m amazing snow quality with no noticeable crust, approx 20-30 cm of recent snow. No signs of instability, sluffing, or storm slabs seen/triggered. A few old (1 week+) sz 2 noted above Darkside Lake.
