Where the climber is in Ryan's pic #2 looks a lot like a passage on p1 of Never Were Warriors. There should be a big cedar above and left, though, which isn't there.

The spidery cracks in the first shot and the rock in general does have Papoose vibe but I can't see much I recognize.
edit: and I did p1 of Survival Enhancement, formerly Duet for Two Hands, as recently as this year

It's the purple route at the gym. And I wouldn't want to walk under that one either -- people lob off it all the time.

Hey I took that pic! I think I know what it's of.
There is that line in the middle of the face. Weasels out right. Probably would have been done in the 30s if it was in Europe.

Doesnt Pamplemousse go through the roof? I don't see a roof in that shot.
Here's Bruce's from a more different angle. If you want to plan your NE cOuloir snowboard descent in a little bit better style. Bring something to get you over the ice step at the bottom

does squamish climbing include climbing skin tracks?
20 points for naming the bridge and location. I'll give you a hint, you start at a graveyard.

Yeah they take it down each winter to discourage travel in that direction I believe. We were actually headed up to Sproatt, when there was still snow below 2000m!

I went to that spiral once with my brother after a Red Rocks road trip.
It had been a wet spring. The spiral jetty was underwater.
He walked out on it anyways.
His shoes got brine shrimp eggs in them. Which later hatched.
You do not want to know what dead brine shrimp in your shoes smells like.

Wow! What a fine line Kris. Where is it (in relation to other climbs on the crag)?
I always loved Shannon Falls Wall. Wonderful place and great and varied climbing. Does anyone climb Poultry in Motion and Man of Leisure these days?

For that person who deserves the best...... JPBooks has a copy of Anders' guide, as new $40- US. It's listed in JPCatalog #53, item #365. While $40- is a reasonable price, it becomes less so when you add the exchange and postage.
Unabashed commercial message.
Santa's little helpers tell me that the 3rd edition of Glenn/Tricouni's outstanding book "Hot Springs of Western Canada" has been available at reputable booksellers everywhere for the last few months. Glenn's son David is listed as co-author. A great gift for someone near and dear!!!!!! Autographed copies likely available direct from Glenn [???]. What are you waiting for? Sorry, not sure of the price. Photo later.
