Stand Up Paddle Climbing Adventure
Today I had the pleasure to guide the sea cliffs of Howe Sound. Like waking up from a dream the view around us at the Squamish Spit was pristine and misty. Garibaldi Mountain and the Chief gave us alpine glow and magic vistas first thing in the morning. This was the environment we paddled in, across the Squamish River on the Stand Up Paddle boards, heading towards the sea cliffs. We managed to secure the boards to the side of the rock face and scrambled to the top of a steep face climb. After a few laps we were satisfied as the winds were picking up. This made for a hell of a ride back to the Spit with a 25 knot tail wind.
