OD mercifully dragged me away from DIY - I have to say, digging up and double-bagging asbestos tiles wearing a full face mask in mid-80's heat was proving a little tedious.
We took a risk and headed up the squamish river valley - a risk because the whole of Vancouver seems to go camping on the early August long weekend, and we were heading up on Sunday night.
Ended up at quite a cool campsite, camped on the banks of the Squamish River (temp approx freezing - isn't ice only because it somehow manages to keep moving....), watched the sun set over mountains, glaciers etc and listened to the distant sound of rednecks partying....
Next day, went for a drive up the valley - about 40ks on dirt roads, and found some genius spots to camp for the future - also sparked the idea that we might need to buy a 4x4 - oh yes.
Outrageous scenery - even after a year and a half, still can't believe this stuff is just up the road.
