x2. The Grand Wall by itself would have at least three five star pitches, and five other three or four star pitches. Exasperator has two five star pitches. I hate granite, but Squamish is awesome. The quality of the indivual pitches outrates the valley IMO. You can buy a sundae at McDonalds and eat it on top of the first pitch on The Chief. Consumer. However, climbing is restricted to maybe 8 to 10 weeks per year.

Having said that, I'd take Arapiles over Squish any day. Did I say I hate granite?
