Squamish 2009: Day 2

The second day at Squamish was relatively slower than the first one. For me at least. Bonnie had a pretty good day compared to us, but we’ve taken it a little easier. The rain was supposed to come later in the afternoon, but we managed to climb until about 6pm!! We mostly walked around and tried a couple of problems here and there. We found a potential project we should give a try a little later again, it’s a V7 called “Corrupted”, past “Trad Killer” and “Heartbreak Hotel”. Bonnie managed to climb about 4 more problems than I did that day. Incredible!! Here’s a quick peek of the classic problems I did on the second climbing day:

  • Any Rock Will Do, V1
  • Up From The Depth, V2
  • Atlas, V4
  • Anatomy Lesson, V2 (repeat)

As you can see, we’ve taken it a lot easier on that day. We’re now taking two rest days and then going back to Squamish, after the rain.

Mig trying the move on “Pocket Problem” (V4)… didn’t finish it because that pocket’s way too small! Bonnie did do this problem. The pocket was no problem for her of course! :)

Bonnie working the crux on “Corrupted”. That’ll go for sure!!

Squamish 2009: Day 1

Just went to Squamish for the first time since last August. We’ve had an amazing first day. Good climbs, good weather, and awesome company! Climbing with Bonnie, my bro, Adam, and Yuval!! How sweet!! Here’s the breakdown of my first day:

  • Easy in an easy chair, V4
  • Sit down to Holm Boy, V6
  • Titanic, V3

What’s particularly awesome is that all three were left over “projects” from last August. Seriously, “Easy in an easy chair” was a problem I had tried for about 3 hours last year… It went pretty fast this time. All three of us are in awesome shape this time around. Here’s a sneak peak of our first day:
