Sport and/or trad with opportunities for both leading and top-rope climbing in or near Squamish. Most often we'll go to the Smoke Bluffs... however depending on group size and experience, plus rock "dryness" conditions, we may go to another crag in the Squamish area. 

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, a PAS (personal anchor system) for securing yourself, plenty of water and energy snacks.

Ropes & 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 do bring it.

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).

Meet at 10:00 am at St. David's Church parking lot at Hwy 1 and Taylor Way, West Vancouver. If you need a ride to the church, please post a request in this trip's planning forum.  We'll aim to arrive back in Vancouver about 7:00 pm.

Cancellation due to weather: -Check the weather on Tuesday morning (Environment Canada - weatheroffice.gc.ca). If the forecast for Squamish is 40% PoP or less then we'll go. Anything above 40% PoP and the trip is automatically cancelled.
