Wondering where I can get a perm in squamish. That’s all

Open to park picnic or a venue but looking for recommendations on a few places that might be good options for an adult birthday party with ~25 adults and 5 kids.

I worry about weather and it doesn't seem like there are any covered/reservable picnic areas in Squamish.

How are conditions in Squamish right now for bouldering. My friends and I are planning to go up tomorrow.

Hi folks,

Just looking to get some thoughts and learn from people's experiences in this subject. I'm 33 years old and have a career based in Vancouver which for the most part I really enjoy. I'm able to work remotely except we are expected to work 2 days a week from our office in Coal Harbour DT Vancouver. If I'm going to be honest, I've never really enjoyed living in larger cities and life in the big V is grinding on me. I love coming up to squamish and feel more at home in the community. Just wondering if anyone is in a similar position and made the move to squamish. Would love to hear thoughts on the commuter life. Have people made the swap and been happy with the decision?

I'm contemplating having a go at renting a room in squamish for a few months while subletting my apartment in North Van in an attempt to try it out and see if it fits. I want to put out some feelers first. I know some of the die hard locals in squamish have not been stoked about the growth the community has seen in recent years but, for what it's worth I'm a pretty cool guy. What's one more Vancouverite moving to squamish?

The votes are in: Flipside (only one it seems in Squamish) and Outbound Station in Britannia

Just went to flipside and it was great!

Anyone seen stinging nettle around Squamish? would really like to harvest some. Figured no one would keep these in secret as it has low value for most people.

I’ve got a few posters that I’d like hardmounted, does anyone do this in town?

Does anybody know why coast mountain academy even considers themselves a private school? I mean other than the LEAD course and Inqubator (Which has nothing to do with animals or even nature) It's just a normal public school with a fat price tag, if there's any newcomers in Squamish do not send your child to this school. As a student the racism and homophobia problem is out of control and they decided to address anything about racism March 1st, the day after black history month. Last year coast had put up some A-Z black inspirational figure sheet on the door which was very small, this year nothing at all was mentioned, there's literally kids running around screaming slurs but nothing happens, but of course when someone has a disagreement with a teacher it's a suspension. TLDR: Coast is a joke of a school and not worth a dollar.

Does anyone know if anyone serves Pina Colada’s in town?

What a fun day with my friend, Clayton. Found the phone I was looking for plus three other bonus phones! I really like this little lake. A ver fun dive.

Hello All,

Coming down for some work/view a townhouse mid-week next week. I'll have free time Tuesday afternoon & Wednesday morning. I like hiking/golfing/trying new food/beers. Could anyone help me out with a few ideas to fill the time?

Thanks!

I have a ton of weeds, and I'm looking for a local company to come remove them. Suggestions?

anyone know a place to get a decent coffee after 5/6pm?

Does anyone have an experience based recommendation for a financial planner in Squamish? I suck at strategic thinking when it comes to finances and am looking for someone to plan & manage my RRSPs.

Looking for the best doggy daycare. Thank you!

Every Friday 5pm-7pm

Mtn Burger rules.

I would like to know if anyone here has any recommendations for which bank to use for a new small business. Income sources will come through lump sum payments from clients and also through ongoing small payments from things like the App Store.

The service I used for registering the corporation gives $300 back from the incorporation fees if you set up your banking at RBC. I realize I could do that and then go through the process of changing and using a different bank but it seems like a big hassle, especially if there is a better choice I can just go with from the start.

I would like to use the credit union in order to contribute back to my community but I don't know if it is the smartest choice. I realize there could be delays in receiving wire transfers for example, I'm wondering though about other things such as interest rates, fees, and credit cards available for a small business.

If you have an opinion, what bank do you think is the best choice for a small - mostly online - business in Squamish?

That store needs to be at least three times bigger!

It's great to see Stongs in Squamish, but wow, that is a tiny spot.

EDIT: Stongs was my goto grocery store in North Vancouver so I'm not hating. Also, any competition against Pattison Group is a good thing. I was surprised by the tiny foot print though.

Hey guys, I'm hoping to summit Mt Garibaldi and possibly Black Tusk this year. I'll be in Squamish from April 30th to May 9th. I have many years of rock climbing experience and minimal ice climbing experience, but not any glacier/mountaineering experience. I'm from Ontario so there aren't any mountains here for me to really build up any experience. I'm keen on attempting a summit of either or both of these mountains. Do you think this is feasible?

​

I'd also like to test my luck here as I had a buddy who knew the are who was I was going to join for the climb but he bailed. Any chance someone here is looking for a (inexperienced) mountaineering partner during the aforementioned time frame? I'm not sure what the etiquette is for this sort of thing so I apologize in advance if it seems like I'm in over my head a little bit.

Is anyone able to recommend a reputable contractor who specializes in crawlspace repairs/encapsulation who services the Sea-to-Sky? Only ones I can find stay in Metro Vancouver.

I know Squamish is full of tech remote workers… any product managers here? Wondering is anyone around here going to Product Camp in Vancouver this weekend? I was going to book the shuttle but if someone is driving I can chip in for gas.

I would like to hike the Chief in a week or two and take the gondola back down.

Any suggestions

Hey I heard there was a really good ramen place here. Just wondering which one is the best. Thank you!

I bought a bike for the Whistler Outlet Store last summer, and I'd like someone (who knows what they're doing) to give a quick service/tune-up.

Anyone got any recommendations?

I am moving to Squamish next month and wondering what people recommend for internet providers. I am moving into a condo downtown and I called Telus and they said fiber is not available in the building. Will be working from home and speed is not a big concern but reliability is.
