Top roping and/or lead climbing in Squamish, most likely the Smoke Bluffs.

All participants must bring their personal climbing gear, including harness, belay device, locking biner, climbing shoes, and helmet. Also highly recommended is a prussic for rappelling, personal anchor system, water, and snacks.

Ropes and anchor material for this event are provided by participants and not by the club. If you have a full strength climbing rope and anchor material, please bring it.  If you plan on leading, bring your lead rack, slings, and QDs.

While the more experienced climbers are usually happy to share their knowledge, this is not a climbing course. Every participant must be able to belay and is expected to have some top roping experience (indoors or outdoors).  If you are *new* to rock climbing, please email or phone to let me know what experience you have.

If no interest is expressed by the evening before the trip meetup date/time, then the trip will be cancelled.

We will leave the church parking lot at 5:05PM.  please arrive 10 minutes early.  St David's Church is located near Hwy 1 and Taylor Way in West Vancouver.

Cancellation due to weather:  I will check a few online weather forecast sites 24hrs before the meetup time. If the "common" forecast of probability for precipitation in the Squamish area is 40% or more then the trip will be cancelled.
