You're also a somewhat attractive chic, so you probably get a pass. Quote

Same as I said before, that I doubt the truth of this story. Is it so impossible for you to believe that violence CAN exist close to home? I say carry a hickory pick handle in the backseat and watch Eastwood in "Pale Rider" before you leave. Quote

I say carry a hickory pick handle in the backseat and watch Eastwood in "Pale Rider" before you leave. squamish youth violence #1 squamish youth violence #2 Squamish is a small town with many bored kids. Usually these 'events' get pretty heavily publicized with much community hand-wringing. I, like others have said, have so far heard nothing about a violent incident involving 50 teenagers in a Squamish park campground recently. I hope you have a good trip up Greg, I think you will find most people very friendly and welcoming. But if you feel threatened by anyone hit first and hit hard, I am sure you know how Quote

In fact I know it can happen here. See fern's post. I dofind it hard to believe that something of that magnitude could happen in a town of this size, and that I would hear nothing about it. I work in a store where we see lots of travelling climber's, I know some of the local police force, and my boss is heavily involved in many local organizations and such. So we are out there, and we heard NOTHING. Leads me to doubt. So, like I said, I doubt the truth of THIS particular story. Quote
Paul_detrick Posted July 7, 2003 Posted July 7, 2003 OK just got off the phone with Jeremy and he said it all went down Tuesday (canada day) they were just going to sleep when they heard a group of kidds messing around when they got out of the tent, thats when it all went down. I don't know you snoboy but this is not bullshit, it happen. It could be a one time thing I don't know, but it does not hurt to be careful and keep a eye out for a while. If you live there why don't you call the RMP and ask them. Quote
Greg_W Posted July 7, 2003 Posted July 7, 2003 I had the unfortunate joy to be involved in a similar action when I lived in Texas. The shit was real and really scary as we were similarly outnumbered. We made it out of there, barely. To my knowledge none of it was ever known or publicized. I can believe that this type of shite was swept under the rug, especially given the laissez-faire attitude that the RCMP fucks displayed, according to the story. Quote
allthumbs Posted July 7, 2003 Posted July 7, 2003 I say we get a posse together, go up there and kick some ass. I'm in. Quote

markws Posted July 7, 2003 Posted July 7, 2003 I would highly recomend that the the victims send emails and/or call the Pique news magazine in Whistler: http://www.piquenewsmagazine.com/index.lasso. I would be surprised if they didn't at least mention it in an issue. Quote
chris_w Posted July 7, 2003 Posted July 7, 2003 Maybe bring it up to the Olympic committee that International Sports Athletes were getting attacked. Maybe they could look into it\put pressure on local police to investigate. They would have 7 years to fix the problem. Quote
Jarred_Jackman Posted July 7, 2003 Author Posted July 7, 2003 I didn't post this to start some sort of drawn out story. I posted it to inform people that this very real ordeal happened at the crag many people have grown to visit quite often and think of as a normal place for fun climbing. If you're a fool and you honestly don't think that weird shit happens in small places, or large places for that matter ... So much for weird shit not happening in small towns, Canada or America. And for those wondering why I wasn't responding it's bc I'm not on this site every day, don't have a computer at home. If you want to contact the people that were involved I would contact Jeremy Dahl who lives in Eohrata and climbs a lot at the Coulee, or Jay Barclay who lives in Kennewick. take care Quote
Greg_W Posted July 7, 2003 Posted July 7, 2003 I, for one, appreciate the information Jarred. Being normally safety conscious I feel pretty comfortable letting my guard down around climbers and climbing venues. I'll be on my guard for sure. Quote

snoboy Posted July 7, 2003 Posted July 7, 2003 Local media has been queried... They know nothing, but are going to ask the RCMP. I'll post if anything else comes up. Quote

It looks like you're trying your damndest to discredit the original poster's claim. Why? I'm sure it happened and your people and gov't. authorities are covering it up. Give it up. This kind of shit happens here in America too; what, you think you Canadians are above this type of bullshit? Fuck. Quote

fern Posted July 8, 2003 Posted July 8, 2003 Only very foolish people take everything they read on the internet at face value for truth. Some people think it's fun to start threads about having just lost their job when they haven't, or about the US bombing Saudi Arabia when they aren't, or about being a hot chick looking for climbing partners when they're not. There's a difference between skepticism and cover-up. I would still like to know what campground this was at, so I can strike it off my list of places to stay. Quote
