From what I understand, it's much more than "an idea at this point". And all "grumbling" (your bias is belied by your choice of terms) aside, what more is there to do? Correct me if I am wrong, but the land is already sold, apparently subject only to a rezoning condition. The developer obviously int...

I think the idea with the Howe Sound water-access crags is that they are supposed to take some of the pressure off popular areas like the Smoke Bluffs and Grand Wall Base.

Free shuttle service will be provided...

From Sechelt...

Just Jackin'...

Just... because?

Was that boulder a hazard?

Unfortunately, you'll be hard-pressed to get beta on ascents and such. However, who knows, someone might pipe up! Good luck!

The conventional wisdom on those puppies is that instead of hiking for 45 minutes, take a similar amount of time and drive up to Squamish to do some "real" bouldering. That being said, those are some fairly nice (if somewhat surface-rotten) hunks of rock. Nevertheless, there's essentially no beta (t...

A few years ago, I was belaying off the tree at the top of Calculus Crack. Unfortunately, I couldn't help but notice someone had discarded a pair of heavily soiled men's underwear briefs nearby...

I can only imagine what the story behind that one was...

I agree as well. "Slow" is relative. Point A. Sure, there are times when passing another party can be considered appropriate. And, usually, it all works out just fine. I mean if a party is truly slow and there is a major issue with that, the slow party usually knows it and usually will co-operate. P...

They're coming wether you like it or not.

They're coming? Or are they just on their way to Whistler?

I understand it perfectly well, thanks.

Partners in Crime is 11a?

I thought it was 10d...

The "strip mall" effect is the real risk here i think.

Ya! But, seriously? From the sounds of it, that's what everybody wants anyways.

Quick hits from the crack pipe.

People, if you want it, I hope you enjoy it.

psi4ce: the climb is 'Partners in Crime' 11a, not 'Crime of the Century'

My bad.

Still, free beta.

Crime of the Century is way outta my league as a lead climb. So, I'm just talking through my hat. But, the beta I've noticed (from watching the "Crime Show" of course--after all, there is a bench right there now) is to "place at the waist" and clip there too. The main benefit is supposed to be that ...

Or, hey, why not wait a year or two and you can take the f*cking gondola?
