Re: Favourite pitch in Squamish - any grade - any style
Natsdad, As soon as you said that, it makes a lot more sense. If I get up there again I'll try. As bearbreeder has routinely pointed out, I always find the worst possible method of doing any given climb. Steve and j2v, Yeah sounds like you did mere mortals.
