| The view from the cliff |
On the way back from the Bugaboos, we stopped in Lake Louise for some sport climbing !
We also went climbing The Grand Sentinel in Lake Louise ! There are two routes of 4 pitches on this spire. One is trad, the other is sport. We did both !

| Maxime and Mathilde, 2 french guys we met, were climbing beside us ;) |
The rock was a little bit shit on The Sentinel but it was fun and the view was great ;)
Revelstoke
After driving west from Lake Louise, Ivan and I stopped in Revelstoke. We slept between the road and Revelstoke Lake. Quite nice ;) The cliff on which we climbed the next day is called Waterworld. It has some short multipitches starting just above the water !

| We slept there for 3 days ;) |
When we arrived in the evening, we met two great guys from the area. They were coming back from their canoe tour and I said : "Oh it would be great to go to the cliffs with a canoe !". One of the guy answered : "You can have it if you want !". No way !?? That's how the next day, we ended up canoeing to the base of the routes, instead of driving to the top and having to rappel down ! ;) Thank you Brad and Dan !!
Lake Skaha
Then, on the way back to Squamish, we'll make a stop in Lake Skaha, another great sport climbing area.
And end of August, we are back to Squamish ! My friend Julie is coming on the 1st of September and together, we will continue the trip ! We'll stay in Squamish for a few days before heading South to Yosemite again !
