Squamish

The Squamish River is a short but very large river in the Canadian province of British Columbia. Its drainage basin is 3,328 square kilometres (1,285 sq mi) in size. The total length of the Squamish River is approximately 80 kilometres (50 mi).

The Cheakamus River (pron. CHEEK-a-mus) is a tributary of the Squamish River, beginning at the terminus of McBride Glacier on Mount Sir Richard in Garibaldi Provincial Park upstream from Cheakamus Lake on the southeastern outskirts of the resort area of Whistler. The river flows into Cheakamus Lake before exiting it and flowing northwest until it turns south and enters Daisy Lake. Between the outlet of Daisy Lake and its mouth, much of its length is spent going through Cheakamus Canyon, where the river flows through swift rapids and even one good sized waterfall. The river flows south from the lake and through the canyon before joining the Squamish River at Cheekye, a few miles north of the town of Squamish. The river's name is an anglicization of the name of Chiyakmesh ("people of the fish weir"), a village of the Squamish people and a reserve of the Squamish Nation.

Ring Creek is a creek in southwestern British Columbia, Canada. It flows west and southwest into the Mamquam River, and east of the Squamish River. The community of Ring Creek is located 6 km East of Quest University on the Garibaldi park Road, at an elevation of approximately 2000 feet above sea level. This community is close to Squamish but is outside municipal boundaries, and falls within the SLRD (Squamish Lillooet Regional District). There are permanent residents as well as seasonal dwellers. Population ranges from 40 to 60 persons depending on time of year. This community is fully off grid and has no centrally supplied water, sewer, electricity, garbage collection, or cable services. The origin of the community began with logging in the area. Once road access was established, recreational users began accessing Garibaldi Park, and some unauthorized cabins were constructed in the area. In the late sixties the government surveyed the current lots and offered crown leases to squatters if certain conditions were met, and annual lease fees were paid. As governments changed, leases were offered up for sale as freehold properties. As of this time most lots have been converted to freehold, although over the past 35 years some lots have reverted to the crown, and a few remain crown leases. The community is well known to the mountain biking community as it sits among and near some of the best known, and most widely used mountain bike trails in the sea to Sky Corridor.

The Skwelwil'em Squamish Estuary Wildlife Management Area is a wildlife management area on the south coast of British Columbia. It was established in 2007 for the management of fish species as well as terrestrial wildlife. The wildlife management area is on the traditional territory of Squamish Nation, which is involved in management of the area. The freshwater of the Squamish River mixes with the saltwater of Howe Sound, resulting in a varied ecosystem containing different habitats that support an abundance of wildlife. It also provides natural flood control for the Squamish town sites.

Cobra Crack is a 45-metre (148-foot) long traditional climbing route on a thin crack up an overhanging granite rock face on Stawamus Chief, in Squamish, British Columbia. The route was first ascended by Peter Croft and Tami Knight in 1981 as an aid climb. After it rebuffed many leading climbers, most notably Swiss climber Didier Berthod in 2005, the Canadian climber Sonnie Trotter made the first free ascent in 2006. With subsequent ascents, the consensus grade has settled at 5.14b (8c), which ranked the route as one of the hardest crack climbs in the world, and almost two decades later, it is still considered one of the world's hardest traditional climbing routes.

It comprises a continuous mass of sparsely porphyritic highly jointed dacitic lava overlying the mid-Cretaceous Coast Plutonic Complex and overlain locally by clay and of glacial till.
