It probably took a lot of beer to achieve it. Speaking of which...........
........Piton lager beer, the mystic mountain taste.............
........Brewed exclusively for OGs.

Hamie, great photo. Did you bring any "pitons" back?
Jim, nice photo; where is it?
The book is the brand new "Hot Springs of Western Canada." Yes, it's a guidebook, and no, it's got zilch Squamish or climbing content. But we are really happy with it. It made #4 on the BC bestseller list last week.
Seeing as you asked....

Has anyone seen any small (or large)Garry Oak trees at Squamish? Years ago there was one somewhere at the base of the main wall, somewhere between the Grand Wall and South South Gully.
Does anybody know if this is still there? Any other ones in the Squamish areas?
Thanks...
Glenn

Wow Jim! So cool! Thanks! Penalty Box? The only one i'm familiar with is a sport climb in Calcheck. One of the Negro Lesbian pitches?

Hi Tami, thanks for the oak comments. Anders emailed that apparently oak (not Garry) was identified in the park during the planning process; I'll have to follow up.
I was just following up, out of curiosity, a 50-year-old memory of mine. Maybe I'll just take a hike along the base there and see for myself!

wow.. too easy.
Sunshine Breakfast is right, I guess if one has visited the climb it would be hard to forget that swooping cavern..
Tami, the cacademon boulders and surrounding area offers some of the finest tunneling in squamish. Quite a time..
