Spring is happening here in the North West. We took advantage of the beautiful day, driving up to Squamish to climb with the WildReilly family. This has become something of a tradition. Waking up saturday morning, packing up, driving along the Sea-to-Sky highway to the "Outdoor Recreation Capital of Canada".
Instead of heading straight to the crag, we end up at Jen, Chris, and Eric's home and have breakfast. This time it was french toast, maple, syrup, and fruit salad on a sunny deck looking out over the mountain scenery. What starts out as a slow morning, always turns into a full afternoon.
We climbed at the smoke bluffs; the octopus's garden wall that had a good mix of moderate to challenging crack climbs. Aurora slept for an hour in a small pack and play that we had carried up with us and then spent the whole afternoon playing, eating, crawling and hanging out with Eric. We are psyched that she is always so chill hanging out outside. Shannon had a great climbing experience, ticking several climbs including an awkward 5.8 off hands route that was really pretty tricky. We climbed the entire afternoon, juggling belays, kids, and climbing. As usual it was great afternoon and another successful day of family climbing.
