Smoke Bluffs are the best and most accessable and great for running laps. Penny Lane, Pixie Corner, and Neat and Cool being the quickest to access and require little gear in way of directionals.

Thanks for the feedback, Dakine. I suspect you are more in tune than I as to what a 12a in Squamish feels like, but I am not so sure it's a 12a.
