Wow ! Great Photos. Ahhh, to be young again. Maybe we should have a when you looked your greatest in your Bikini thread ? :D

I'm guessing that many of us may be non-entrants in that particular contest.
Edit: This should not be interpreted as opposition to anyone wishing to pose photos of bikini-clad humans, particularly females. If climbing, so much the better.

I'd hope so! But what a fine idea.

Except for the first and possibly the last photo (the ladybug!), all the pictures in Andy's first post were taken about ten km from where I am sitting right now.

Well, of course! And except for that Peñón.

Climbing near the water promotes interesting choices in clothing, even in February:

"Costa Blanca?"
Dang, I thought that was Heaven.
The lady bug was on the traverse, Anders.

Hi Andy -- long time, no see. Maybe we should rectify that once the sun shines on Squamish again. Or maybe you should come down and check out what we're doing on Zeke's Wall.
As to the seaside stuff, maybe it's just me getting old and forgetting things, but I sure don't remember that woman in the bikini being there when I last traversed those cliffs...
David
Edit: Hmmm. She probably wasn't even born when I last traversed those cliffs.

This place is called Paradiset. Felt a little ominous to me.

David,
Not knowing what to make of this beehive, it was reassuring to find your own contributions to the Squamish-in-the-70s thread.
I hope we do venture out again. Is this Zeke's business as good as rapping through a tangle of wet saplings to scarify the rock and bombs-away adjust the rope to the height of the outcrop?

Through the forest primeval,
bearded in moss,

Chiloe,
Sweden? "a superb area of granite cliffs and boulders set beside the sparkling sea"
sounds on topic
I like to see veins of lighter or darker rock running through the main mass.

The sunnier photo I posted above was from Kullen, in Sweden.
Not granite, but I had superb times there, and it sparkled some, on my two visits.
