Squamish Summer Solstice

I love the long nights this time of year. After work it feels like I have another entire day in front of me! We've been taking advantage of the long sunny days these past few weeks by getting out climbing, hiking and mountain biking most evenings. You can even kiteboard into the evenings on the windy enough days.
Diedre: 7-pitch climb up the Apron of the Chief - super popular route, but we had it all to ourselves in the evening!
biking in Crumpit Woods
Kiting at the Squamish Spit One evening we even pulled off climbing "Rock On" a 6-pitch 5.10a classic on the Chief just before the rain and darkness kicked in.
Gorgeous Squamish granite I have to go up this?

Nothing beats Gelato Carina's in downtown Squamish on a warm summer's day (Mango yoghurt is DELICIOUS!)
