Make the most out of living in Squamish by climbing during the week on real rock as opposed to plastic. And of course send something hard.

Buttress, Ultimate Everything, Upper Echelon, Rock On, Jungle Warfare, and another kick at the Grand Wall. Nothing really special in that list but hey, I'm still cutting my teeth.

Last year I decided I wanted to try to climb 5.13 by the time I turned 50. That gave me 3 seasons. I got two seasons left and didn't seem to make any headway over last year.

quit my job in mid summer/ fall and do some climbing in bulgaria, greece, and saudi arabia (if there is any climbing there) before i start work in saudi. as far as local stuff, i'd like to redpoint a couple more 12- sport (ie. blackwater) and be a somewhat proficient 10+ trad climber

There's a vast amount of limestone climbing in Oman and the UAE also (sport/ trad/ dws/ bouldering). Short flights from Saudi.

I have a guidebook from Oman. My mother was living there for a while but is now in the UAE. It sounds like a choss fest but if I lived there I would probably climb it.
Back on topic. I haven't done many clip-ups in Squamish so maybe a couple of days at Pet wall or in Check are in order. Haven't been to Cal-Chek in ages either.
