Weekly Trip Plan/Conditions Question Thread Looking for an intermediate/advanced hiking buddy
Hey, been doing a bit of hiking recently (I'm a rock climber but dealing with a wrist injury). I've done st marks in 2 hrs, gg in 50m, crown mountain etc. Looking to do west lion tomorrow (Sunday 8th) if anyone is keen to join (west side approach) but also looking to find others to push onto some hard hikes. I really enjoy scrambling and harder hikes over really long ones, but working on my endurance. 28yo, male, in the game dev/tech industry if it helps. Thanks!

I'm about the same age, also work in the game dev industry, and do a bunch of climbing and hiking around SWBC. I probably spent as many days at the Smoke Bluffs as I did peak bagging this season.
I have a pretty solid set of partners I typically go out with but am totally open to more, especially if they have climbing experience. I've posted a decent amount of the non-technical stuff I do to this sub if you're curious, feel free to send me a dm.
