Squamish, Day One!

Word! We rolled into Squamish around noon today, and as always, coming around the corner and seeing the Chief was crazy! This place is so amazing. For all of you back in Juneau, imagine a 2,000 foot granite wall right behind town. That is Squamish. Bluebird skies today made for perfect conditions.

We pulled up and jumped head first right into things...at least Hunter and Rachael did. Hunter climbed an area classic, Mosquito and its second pitch, Phlemish Dance. Excellent climbs, and Hunter's first time leading on granite and Rachael's first time in any sort of crack - we were pretty stoked. A day of tuning our foot work on slab climbing (yikes) and then some food at the Howe Sound Brew Pub. Now we are going to go collapse for a good night sleep. We are worked. Stay tuned for pics coming shortly.
