The ice climbing season is underway
Pinnacle Gully has been climbed!
Jp Gouin and Baptiste Rousseau sent it on 10/21/18.
Last year it was not climbed until 11/11/18. This early cold is setting things up nicely. Several other ice climbs have been reported as well. Let’s hope the cold weather continues. The Thursday and Friday night forecast calls for temps in the teens!

This week as part of the #alpinistcommunityproject, we're sharing work from cartoonist and writer Tami Knight. Born in Vancouver, British Columbia, Knight grew up steeped in adventure; as a kid, she dreamed of playing around on top of the Squamish chief, and using the huge granite apron as a 1,000-foot playground slide. Knight competed as an elite gymnast through college, and graduated from Art School in 1983. It was around that same time that she first began the climbing cartoons that have made her sense of humor infamous in the climbing community today. During the late 1970s and 1980s Tami Knight climbed regularly at Squamish, an area that she profiled for Alpinist in Issue 43. She’s the author of six volumes of climbing comics with her latest publication in the anthology "Waymaking" (Vertebrate Press, UK, October 2018) and she’s been contributing to Alpinist since Issue 1.
