Heya,

A mate and I are thinking of heading up Saturday or Sunday. We lack vehicle, extensive equipment, etc. We make up by having a rope, and loads of enthusiasm. ;-) (I have rope, partial rack.)

I've done a spot of trad, sport. Mostly boulder and TR. (No crash pad at the moment)

Any takers?

Actually, now that I think of it, Friday (may 6th) evening might be a good time as well...

I'm going to head up this weekend to I reckon, assuming 2 things of course

a-The weather doesn't crap out
b-I get access to the car

Even if I don't get a car I live in Horseshoe bay so perhaps somebody else could pick me up on their way past? Happy to split gas etc. Got lots of gear and ropes. I'm free Sat/Sun/Mon so there should be a window in there.

Well hey, since you have a car Vegan-girl, what about sorting something out for Tuesday or Thursday of next week. (After work like.) I have at least one other mate that'd probably be game for a spot of climbing after hours... The days are somewhat longer...

And Remi, yeah, I haven't been in touch with you in a while... Errr, too friggin disorganised. Yeah, that's it... :-P

Depends on traffic at the Lion's Gate and backups at the Lion's Bay Highway construction. Generally between 45 min and 1 hour Georgia and Burrard to the Grand Wall.

Hmm, if there's a weekday bouldering session happening next week then I might be down. Not so keen on routes though.

How about Tuesday around 6pm near the sea bus terminal on the north shore? (I could probably swing earlier if that is waaay too late.)

Next question, boulder or sport-tr? If bouldering, then perhaps I pick up a pad before then...

hey... as long as the weather is good... I"m up for bouldering/ climbing... I'd prefer weekdays... less crowded. 6pm would be too late to climb routes... but I'm up for bouldering locally. I wanna play outside as much as possible.... so who ever wants to get together let me know. yeah... the more the merrier :wink:

But I still wanna head up to squamish a few times during the week. anyone free during the weekdays??

I meant during the day. As of now I'm free every day next week, although I do have half-plans to do a long route next week sometime.

I'm still interested in heading out to Cypress Falls park tomorrow evening if anyone is game. (Yes, that means you Sean.) This is all pending no rain, of course. I was aiming to head to North Van ferry terminal around 6pm if I could get a lift from there, failing that, heading up directly to CF via public transit and walking...

Sean, I'll give you a call if the weather is good. Anyone else leave a message here or PM me if interested.
