Car break in at Chek

[squamish climber]

Climbers' Access Society of BC sent out an email yesterday:

There has been a recent report of a car break in at Chek. This is worth mentioning as it occurred at the "middle" parking lot which is only 100m or so below the busy upper parking area. As always, make sure you don't leave valuables in your car!

Thank you for your continued support!

I was wondering if the crime/theft rate at climbing areas is going up or down around Squamish. Anybody have any anecdotal evidence?

Never trust a sport climber

There always seem to be somewhat sketchy-looking individuals camped at Chek these days...

More sketchy looking than dirt bag climbers?. Really?

[harihari]

Sport climbers are dirtbags?

I met some impressive sport dirt bags in El Potrero Chico. One had not worked in 3 years. That is dirtbagging!.

You cant dirt bag it in El Potrero....its literally impossible with wifi in your tent and pool side climbs

Leave some spent shotgun shells on your dash. Works like a charm
