??? I seriously disagree - for sport climbing Cheakamus canyon is like nothing else in the area. the rock is much more suited to sport rather than crack like everywhere else. It's a big area with plenty of rock around. Great for an after work session (in summer) and doesn't require dicking around with gear, which always takes longer.

Some fantastic problems include Mr Negative and next to it, Mrs Negative on the Lychen Wall - 5.12a and 5.12d I think. also some further around on the circus wall. Oh and Boiler Room 5.12d on the Forgotten wall is awesome because you can belay out of the passenger seat of your car...
Those were my ticks for the area anyway and I liked them a lot. not the best in squamish, but brilliant for an after work quickie as I said.
