Climbing & Caving, Monday Period 3
Liam had handwavily informed the students to meet at the causeway today, and to dress in gear appropriate for hiking.
There was a portal waiting for them, and once everyone had stepped through to the other side, they'd find themselves at the base of a granite mountain.
"Welcome to Squamish, British Columbia," Liam said. "This mountain here is the Stawamus Chief, or just The Chief. We're not climbing the mountain today, although depending on how this goes, we may come back to do that. Instead, we're going to continue on from last week and tackle some of the boulders here at the base of the mountain."
"In bouldering, climbs are rated on a scaled starting from V0 and currently going all the way to V17. Here in Squamish, there's a little bit of everything, from V0s and 1s all the way up to 14."
He gestured to the pile of chalk bags and crash mats that he'd assembled and brought through ahead of time. "Grab some chalk, and lay some mats out if you think you'll need them, and get to climbing."

That was a quality chunk of granite.
