Blazing Saddles, Rock On and Squamish Butress - photo report

Came across a nice blog post by ChossClimbers who did a perfect looking trifecta in one weekend earlier this month. Nice going Radek and Shirley -- looks like a good time.

Radek and Shirley get around!!! Last time i ran into them was on the 20 pitch Steger route in the Dolomites. Very very nice people.

The faces are so big in the Dolomites that route finding can be quote challenging, so we both show up at the base offering each other to go first....hoping to find out which way NOT to go. Turns out they already fell for that trick once :)
