Didn't clue-in right away but these were shot by a drone, interesting. Good clarity on the camera.
Let's see some more drone shots from others.

Some of you here may be aware of the access issue at Quarry Rock in North Vancouver. The Climber's Access Society of BC is requesting climbers not climb at Quarry Rock until issues are resolved.
