thanks.

Another questions re: ropes

I use 2 60m 8.5mms for trad in the UK - bring them? or would it be just as well to bring a single 10mm sport rope and use it for everything?

I've heard that the bouldering landings tend to be rocky ankle eaters; can you hire pads anywhere in the area?

Squamish beta

Hi, I'm visiting Squamish from the UK for 2 weeks in May, can anyone advise on the following: Camping - tent or camper van (mini-van? Don't want a winebago!)? Routes - would like to sample bit of everything, but mainly coming for the trad, are cracks the prevalent style? Car/van hire - flying to Sea...
