Skaha

A desert in BC? Located about 5 driving hours eastwards from Vancouver, Skaha is sheltered from pacific precipitation by the surrounding mountain ranges, making it a great alternative to rainy Squamish, not to forget the oppurtunity of seeing more of BC landscapes during the ride. We had a great weekend outside, with frosty nights in the tent, scrambeld eggs & bacon for breakfast and sunny climbing days on solid rock. After about three years (including four new rubber soles) of misusing my climbing shoes, they are finally done and amortized after this weekend. See the pictures of this beautiful colorful autumn landscape, probably the last summer days of 2007.
