Hiking the Stawamus Chief

 
 
Last weekend I joined my friend Marina and her brother for a day hike up in Squamish. We decided to hike to the first peak of the Stawamus Chief and back, which was approximately 5 km. The trail for the Stawamus Chief begins not far from Shannon Falls, a location I had previously visited with my dad.
 
Both Marina and I brought our cameras to document the experience. Marina has a blog of her previous research experiences, which she plans on updating now that she’s here in British Columbia. She was kind enough to let me feature some of her photographs in this blog post, which is so kind of her since some of these pictures are breathtaking.
 
The journey to the first peak was entirely uphill. The trail had us climbing stairs, boulders, ladders, and even the exposed rock of the mountain. There were people of all ages, sizes and abilities hiking up the mountain, and I’d encourage anyone to give it a try. It was exciting and refreshing to tackle the challenge, and I’d like to hike the more challenging trails to the second or third peak in the future. 
 
Without further ado, here are some photographs on the experience.

  1. Hello all, here every person is sharing these kinds of know-how, therefore it’s pleasant to read this webpage,
    and I used to pay a quick visit this webpage every day.

  2. Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally,
    it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point.
    You obviously know what youre talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to your site when you could be
    giving us something enlightening to read?

  3. I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog and was curious what all is needed
    to get set up? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
    I’m not very web smart so I’m not 100% positive. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks

  7. Hmm it appears like your blog ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess
    I’ll just sum it up what I wrote and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying
    your blog. I too am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to the whole thing.
    Do you have any suggestions for novice blog writers?
    I’d definitely appreciate it.

  8. Howdy! Do you know if they make any plugins
    to assist with SEO? I’m trying to get my blog to rank for some targeted
    keywords but I’m not seeing very good success. If you know of any please share.
    Thank you!

  9. I have been surfing online greater than three hours nowadays, yet I never discovered any attention-grabbing article like yours.
    It is pretty worth sufficient for me. In my view, if all website owners and bloggers made good content
    as you did, the internet shall be much more useful than ever before.
