Was great high pressure system while it lasted, Kieran and I milked the last of the drystone with a lap up 'The Squamish Buttress' yesterday on my lunch break.
Now that the distracting dry rocks and sunshine are hidden in the clouds for bit hopefully I can catch up on work,
Since I don't have a photo from yesterday, I'll share this one.
Not Squamish but this will happen to the pillar one day. In the first vid, although I cannot translate schweizer deutsch I'm going to go out on a limb and say their saying"lets get outahere before the peak we are standing on goes!They must of been shaking in their boots literally!
Hey Big Mike,
Heads up to you, Luke, Aislin, Relic and the crew.
Ms Chief and I are hosting our annual Solstice Bonfire in 20 days and your all invited.
Huge fire rain or shine, you can drink as much as you want if you promise not to drive.
BK, Mighty, bmacd, Hamish and the rest of you frost back hosers, yer invited.
No need for any logs Anders. The big guy gets a half cord of fir raging with a half gallon of diesel and there's enough heat to warm up the smoke bluffs. It's a roaster.
Sadly, the full moon isn't until the 28th. No chance of seeing this:

The exact combination of winter solstice, sunset and (visible) full moon would be magical. This photo was from December 9th last year, which was close but no cigar. I got a similar one on December 1st, 2009, which again was in the hockey rink. I wonder if I'll live long enough to get the trifecta?
please give us a respite from the deluge from noon to three tomorrow. I hafta hike Georgia St then Howe St herding unicyclists for the Santa Claus parade. Zillions of people...........oy oy oy.
Where is the fire at, Perry? Unsure if I can make it .........butchyaneverknow..........
Saw this when walking the dog yesterday in the rainy forest. It would appear that some climbers are standing up to the rain, fighting back so to speak but......Yea the tarp didn't do nuthin but make me laugh. A for effort though!
Let us know!
