Looking back where one has to traverse from where the creek drops down or follow the creek down (and then climb up a steep area).

From here you can ski away from the steep area as this widens out quite a bit as salmon creek turns to the East a bit, but you end up on the wrong side of two creeks, the longer one starts just a bit below here, and has steep banks, though not as large as the slope up to the road, or salmon creek, though they get even steeper where it goes into Salmon creek (I turned around at that point last year).

It does not look like it here or in real life, but it is uphill to traverse back from here!
