Howdy. Here are some pictures that I mostly took during the month of June in Squamish.
Some shots taken before I left Fredericton too. Enjoy.

1-02.jpg: A shot of someone getting some air.
1-03.jpg: Maybe Geoff? Going inverted, I reckon.
1-04.jpg: Some more air.
1-05.jpg: This is Geoff's Fiat 124 Sport Spider... Let's just say it's a project car.
1-06.jpg: Another shot of the Fiat. These are all when Geoff was having some... wiring issues?
1-07.jpg: The Legend Continues...
1-08.jpg: This is old Nasty.. My 'new' 1984 BMW 318i. Looks good from a distance.
1-09.jpg: A nice side view..
1-10.jpg: Every photoshoot needs a model. Rachel LeBlanc beautifying New Maryland.
1-11.jpg: Me and Rach spent alot of time with Grant and Sarah. Sarah and Grant aren't always so surprised and cunning, respectively. Oh, and that's my dog.
1-12.jpg: CLIMBING: Me just after the crux on "The Egg", V11?, Squamish BC. The crux is throwing to and sticking that right hand I'm on.
1-13.jpg: A nice shot of me trying to snag that hold my left hand is on in the previous photo.. second move of the problem.
1-14.jpg: This is Matt. We all thought he was going to fall and die on this sketchy highball. I thought one last picture would be appropriate.
1-15.jpg: Note the look of sick desperation. I think he was laughing at the thought of being spoonfed pudding for the rest of his life, after he cratered
and broke his spine. He did get it though, actually.
1-16.jpg: Mike Maddock. He doesn't always look this fuckin' stupid. This is him on.. ... aah, I can't remember. V7 though. Nice sloping traverse arch thing.
1-17.jpg: Another much better shot.
1-18.jpg: Laughter, the best medicine.
1-19.jpg: A good shot of Mike and Alexandra, a girl from Switzerland who I met at the climbing gym.
1-20.jpg: Mike trying a super hard variation. His body is horizontal, actually.. his feet are level with his hands. I apologize for the funny camera angle.
1-21.jpg: No funny angle this time.. This steep climb is called "Pulling Teeth", V5 (I think). Crimpy and hard.
1-22.jpg: A nice shot of Alexandra trying a cool slopey topout move we found.
1-23.jpg: Another shot of Alexandra.
1-24.jpg: ... and another. Not very good. Sorry.
1-25.jpg: A shot of me (again on The Egg). This time lunging for off the start holds for that first move. Note how fucking FAR it is.. That hold I'm throwing for sucks too. (I still haven't done it).
1-26.jpg: If people tell you they believe in God, tell them they ought to, because Satan is alive and well, climbs alot, and apparently goes by the nickname "Mitch". This is actually not a picture of the devil, but a shot showing the heelhook on the start holds of The Egg. You kinda can get a feel for how bad that left hand it too.
1-27.jpg: This is sweet. We were driving back from Squamish, and these chicks in this car would NOT let us pass.. I tried to burn past them in the right hand lane, and they gave us the finger. So we were fuckin' around with them, and they were lovin' it. So this one chick decides she's gonna take her top off and stand out of the sunroof. Cute girls who undress for stangers (read: me) get the Unconditional Seal of Approval.
1-28.jpg: This is me. That's right, fuckers. Sittin' atop "Easy in an easy chair", V5.
1-29.jpg: This is me climbing Easy in an Easy Chair. Don't let the name fool you, it's plenty hard. Much harder than it looks in the picture.
1-30.jpg: Some dude. On some V6 slopey thing on the Golden Boy boulder. Can't remember the name. It's rad though.
1-31.jpg: Another dude on the same route. He said his name is "Martine" and made it very clear that it wasn't french, and thus "not a girl's name."... Easy there, trigger..
1-32.jpg: Mike on the same problem.
1-33.jpg: Another shot.. this one is a bit better. He moves his head around like he's having a seizure, it was tricky to catch his face in the shot...
1-34.jpg: A little group photo you can use as your desktop background.
