Well, the title says it all; We have been climbing every day and its amazing. So far we have been several different areas climbing- Murrin Park, The Smoke Bluffs, and the Bullet Heads. We are quickly getting a feel of the rock now and really enjoying the incredible crack climbing.
The weekends are a bit insane up here... we were a bit surprised on Saturday to find every crag packed, no matter where we went. So perhaps working on the weekends and climbing weekdays might be the best bet. Now we only need jobs....
We are currently staying in the climbers campground at the base of the chief and desperately looking for a van to live in. It has become very apparent that the car is just way too small to live out of all summer. To get clothes, food, climbing equipment... etc. you pretty much have to unpack and repack the car constantly. Not a good time. We are hoping to find something soon and have chased a good lead up to Whistler this afternoon and are going to think about it over the next few days. Since we were up there anyways and neither of us had been to Whister before, Paul and I took the opportunity to do the town stroll and check things out. It turns out Whistler is a lot like Banff... a pretty rad place but super trendy and shopping focused. Beautiful mountains everywhere though!
In a tremendous show of generosity as the Sikh Association of Squamish put on a FREE Indian feast for all the hungry mouths of Squamish and of course, being poor climbing bums we just couldn't pass it up. SO Good!
Lowell and I taking in some of the amazingly tasty food.
