Glad you like them Tami! They got me quite a few looks, particularly when I went into town with shorts over top of them, and wearing the hat. Note the headlamp on top.
My goal is a tribute to Keith Reid. My unofficial nick is NFR, after him.
On our Apron descent, Luke had his approach shoes and I was barefoot, so he ran ahead of me. I caught up to some other people on the way down and asked them if they had seen a funny looking guy come that way.

Sounds like the olden days Relic, where some thought a course marshal, like for golf, would help things move along.

Perry, isn't there a music festival in Squamish this Saturday (25th), then the big Vancouver-Whistler bicycle tour on the 8th? Would either make a difference?

When you say "new", do you mean half a purple one, a horrible stiff white one with a knot in the middle, and an orange one thats starting to look a little beat along with a crappy old crab...... :-) I can arrange for beer and stories to be exchanged for the orange one in September....

Maybe Sept 8 would be best as to avoid the festival? Grand Fondo won't make much difference I don't think as they just ride through town... Traffic might be busy but should mellow out later in the day...

My first guess is that Harry's photos are from Princess Louisa Inlet and area, but every fjord up and down the coast has similar features.

Mike,
Pending confirmation with a couple key players (like Ms. Chief!), I'm aiming for Saturday Sept. 8 for the 1st Annual Psyche Ledge Rendezvous. If that conflicts with someone's plans for a massive road ride on Hwy 99, a BBQ, Outdoor Rock Concert, pedicure or Yoga retreat, I DON"T CARE!
