we just arrived in squamish now we're gonna go check into our place
and we're gonna go explore the city for a bit and then tomorrow is the big hike day so now it's the
evening in squamish we're gonna go check out the city go to the nice river that's there
now we're sitting here by the river overlooking the hike that we're gonna be doing tomorrow
right there the chief who's ready not me
we walked around the main street for a bit called cleveland street we just bought
a dinner that we're gonna make back at our place just preparing ourselves for the hike
we have all our stuff packed we're taking a jacket in case it's cold and then some
snacks and some water and now we're ready just gonna catch the first bus and we're gonna go
we just got off bus number five which took us right to the trailhead where the chief
hike starts we're gonna be going on the first peak
for entering the park you're going to need a bc parks pass
which is free but it's just to keep the number of people inside the park regulated
start of the hike now about 600 meter elevation game starts off with a bunch of stairs
the start of the hike starts off with a bunch of stairs
which is followed by a lot more stairs and then once these stairs end there's even more stairs
you're hiking beside like a little waterfall stream the whole time looks pretty nice
we hiked for a bit and we passed the split almost the whole hike so far has been some stairs but
there's been a bit of level ground it's pretty steep it's not an easy hike but it's very doable
we're at our first little lookout area there's a little rock
and then there's a nice lookout area there's also a helicopter landing pad
here's the change over where you go first peak and there you go to second peak we're
on the part where the trail splits off between the first peak and the second peak
we're headed off to the first peak right now don't have much left i think about 50 meters elevation
now we're at the spot where there's a ladder it's a very short ladder
it looks like we're just about at the top now there's a little rock and then
it looks like the peak is just there so we almost made it we have to use
this chain that's attached to the mountain and we climb by the chain
the last part we just did had a few ladders and some chain ropes to help you
get up because the rock itself was really steep and slippery
getting right up to the top now we're almost at the peak i already see a really nice view
we made it we're right at the top and now we get to enjoy this amazing view
we just made it down from the first peak really great views you have to go down all those ladders
and ropes and the rocks it's pretty difficult now it's time for the second peak maybe the third
now we're at this part where the second peak starts and there's a
rope and chain that you just take up you climb on rocks some more difficult hiking
just made it to the top of second peak the view is definitely better from the first one
but the hike here was really difficult which made it really fun
you have to use a bunch of ropes and some ladders and then you just
have to rock climb up some rocks using the spiderman technique is what i think is best
you can see the first peak right over there that's the rock that it stands on and then
that looks like it's going to be the third peak so now we're going back down this is definitely going
to be the harder part though wish us luck and i'll see you at the bottom just got down very difficult
pretty hard on the knees the first peak was really nice i would definitely recommend that
the trail is also easier so if you're going for the view definitely go to first peak but second
peak if you're going more for the journey second peak is very difficult it has some
tough parts we have to use robes and stairs but it's it's pretty fun but the view
is better from the first peak we never decided to go to third peak but that's the point with the
highest elevation just at the end of the chief trail there's another spot where you turn left
and you go on to the shannon falls hike we're just going to check out shannon falls right now
now we're just making it to the base of shannon falls which are the third tallest waterfalls in bc
another thing in squamish you can do is take the sea to sky gondola up to the summit
and then it brings you to a nice little lodge and
you chill there for a bit with a really nice view of the lake
the buses aren't running so we're at the base
and we're stuck taking a cab if you can get a car here because the bus we heard is very unreliable
and there's just so many stops along the highway that you can do see things we just got dropped off
went to nester's market quickly to get dinner and now walking back to the hostel
we just checked out of our hostel now we're just walking around the main city
there's a decent amount of options for food you can go to nester's market and they have
ready food but they also have food that you can make on your own i heard save on foods is also
cheaper and then there's a few restaurants in this city we didn't have food from any of them though
