SQUAMISH

The Stawamus Chief over Howe Sound

The place

The Chief rises 702 m over Howe Sound, one of the largest granite monoliths in the world, and the Squamish Nation hold it sacred. In 1961 Jim Baldwin and Ed Cooper spent weeks hammering up the Grand Wall with 135 bolts while crowds stopped on the road below to watch. Today jumpers leave the 1st Peak over the same wall.

Is it legal? Not illegal, and busy.
