Today we had another rest day. After walking around Squamish for a bit we went to Alice lake and hung out for the day.
Wednesday was a rest day. My friend Joy visited from Vancouver! I went with her to Smoke Bluffs. I threw down some top ropes at Crag X. I guess I was just having too much of a good time to take any pictures.
The rest of the day was just spent hanging out.

The next day we climbed the Buttress and Rock On with Shy and Allie.
Shy just being a bad ass
The view was breath taking.
Hunter and I traded leads while Shy did all the leading for her and Allie in front of us.
We had to put all our small gear together for this pitch, unfortunately we had some problems with passing gear back.

Ryan and Mary left this morning, but before they left Ryan treated Hunter and I at the Howe Sound Pub.
Group Shot!
Hunter and I went to Neat and Cool to do some really cool lines.
This is one of the Top 100 climbs. We both also got to lead the Neat and Cool classic.
After this we went to the Recreation Center to take a shower. They no longer have 2 dollar entries for the shower.
After playing some Foosball in the lobby of the rec centre we me up with Shy, our friend and boss at the Outdoor Centre, and her friend Allie.
In the evening we went back to Cheakamus campsite and met up with Steve who was doing some projecting. We joined in briefly.

Night projecting is the coolest looking thing in the world, but hard to photograph

After a bit of cragging Ryan and Mary went to spend some time in the town. Hunter and I did the Smoke bluff connection in this time. It had the prettiest view of any climb on this trip to date.
One of the Pitches Wonderland. Seriously Cool

The next morning, we met up with Hunter’s friends Ryan and Mary.
Our campsite in Cheakamus
We did a bit of cragging in Cheakamus. While we were there a girl climbed a 5.13d route. It was very impressive.

On Thursday we got up in our campsite after sleeping in the car again. The weather was looking decent so we decided to go for a quick bike ride around the area. The trail we took up ended up being the down track, so we had to push the bikes a bit

After a ride we packed up the car and headed for Squamish. We arrived to a bit of rain, so we had dinner and set up camp.
