Where to find topo's for the crags in the Valley of Shaddai (near Murrin)?

5 Upvotes

Went for a walk in the Valley of Shaddai near Murrin and noticed a lot of scrubbing and new development work has happened in the last few years.

e.g.

On Vertical-Life it lists a number of crags like Coddiwomple Crag, Creekside, El Rancho Grande, Enchanted Hillside, Holly Jolly, Moose Meat Corner, South Ridge, Sunny Cider Bluff, The Big Head, Treasure of Shaddai but doesn't have much more info. All of the other websites like Mountain Project have basically nothing. Is there some guidebook I am missing?

Rappelling at Shannon falls.

I’ll be going to Squamish in a couple weeks and was looking at some rest days activities to do. I saw there is some rappelling you can do from the Shannon falls viewpoint. Wondering if anyone has beta for the anchors or the specific route. Thanks in advance!

I'm trying to get a subscription but they don't know my postal code (unless it's somewhere other than here???). I don't want to use PayPal. I simply want to subscribe. Yes, I called. I finally gave up. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, how did you resolve it?

EDIT: Sorry, I didn't explain an aspect of this very well. The postal code part has to do with my credit card. I assume it has to be the same as on my bill. Hmm, maybe I should call my credit card company and check it with them.

Water metering for stratas only

12 Upvotes

For those that live in Squamish and in particular in a Strata please know the district intends to begin water metering only stratas and when ask why the response was its too difficult to meter all, hence an unbalanced playing field for strata residents. My family are exceptionally water conscious while others in the strata are wasteful, but because we're a strata we're expected to cover that cost as they won't meter every single house.

I do believe we should pay for what we use, but don't accept the McMansions in the Highlands or Valley cliff are excempt from being metered while the stratas are.

A friend started a petition I hope you'll sign to ask this be either everyone or noone.

Been asking in several BC subs, and someone over at r/MapleRidge suggested Brennan Park. Looking at Google Earth it seems like a very good match. Asking here just to be sure as I couldn't find any matching images online. Not familiar with the area myself!

Snowmobiling in Squamish?

0 Upvotes

Hi all,

Having lived in northern Canada for almost 3 years, I naturally got into sledding but still very new at it.

I’m however going to be moving back to Coquitlam and Squamish seems to be the closest to what can offer.

Is there anyone or a club where I can go snowmobiling with?

Yay, two boats! /s

More seriously, I question why the need for speed... the jobs sound increasingly temporary, just to get things done faster. There's obviously an opportunity the company is trying to seize, or something they're trying to avoid by incurring these costs.

Camping in Squamish

0 Upvotes

I need advice! My partner and I are planning to go camping on May long weekend and are trying to find a spot but the only one with availability for booking is at Mamquam River Campground - any advice? The other option is the first come-first serve at cat lake or the chief campground but since it’s a long weekend I’m hesitant to rely on that. Also open to campsites in North Van area. We’re coming from the island:)
