The Little Smoke Bluffs:
Probably the most popular crag in Canada, Burgers & Fries low angle slabs and easy TR possibilities make it a friendly spot for everyone. My first 5.10 leads were her including Catch Me Quick, 5.10b (above) and Catch Me Quicker, 5.10c. The one to climb is definitely Burgers & Fries, 5.7 that has a beautiful runout at the finish to exhilarate all those climbers who get to complacent with 5.7's... |

The most casual crag at Squamish is also one of the messiest...bring a rope bag to save yourself some grief!
Peter pulling the crux on Catch Me Quicker, 5.10c. This is a sweet little climb with a short, intense crux right after a bolt. Takes gear + a few bolts. |
Ken and Gary debating over the worthiness of the nut Ken has in to protect the upcoming crux on Catch Me Quick, 5.10b
After the crux you gain a thin crack that's a welcome relief after the delicate slab work but beware! The crack runs out for a while and it's back to trusting that good 'ol sticky rubber... |
