Cypress Creek Canyon, Vancouver, Canada, PNW Fest

Well, we ain't nuts, so we made the last long drive to the land of the Maple Leaf in search of glorious canyon fame.

Thornton Creek Canyon, North Cascades National Park, PNW Fest

Thornton was the business. It was my favorite canyon of the trip, though some of the other festers would like to disagree. But let's be real, this thing has it all.

Gorge Creek Canyon, North Cascades National Park, PNW Fest

I was amped for the drive into the great North. The highlight of the night definitely came in Sedro-Woolley. I never realized how important the process of beer selection is.

Denny Creek, PNW Fest

Denny Creek is the equivalent of Snoqualmie's less attractive roommate. You don't mind hanging out with her as long as the good looking one is there too, but you certainly wouldn't go out of your way to just hang out with Denny.

Canyoneering South Fork Snoqualmie Creek, PNW Fest

South Fork Snoqualmie could easily be considered the "Pine Creek" of the Pacific Northwest. The similarities are striking. Easy access, densely packed with action, and fairly straightforward technically. What's more, they both have highways running literally on top of them.
