G-spotter Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 It pretty much always rains a lot in June. Squamish dries out a bit in April and May, then again in mid-July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Why does someone always feel they have to say this when we've got a good weather gripe session going on? Â 1. Oh, hey, I guess the weather can be unpredictable and sketchy here. You have probably unlocked some deep truth here the rest of us didn't understand. And you're tougher than us. 2. No shit. 3.
