Rad! As someone who had to search for a few years to find a doctor able to reconstruct my ankle after a ski incident that would work with me on a recovery plan and actually listen to what my definition of skiing is (not two laps of the bunny hill followed by 5 hours of apres), I totally appreciate your take on medicine and recovery. Also, the inserts are great. Had mine for about 3 weeks and since we’ve had rain I don’t remember ever feeling so planted. 10/10!

Comments like this always make me scratch my head. Is climbing not fun?

@nvranka: lol seriously.

@twinone: First, to clarify, I was pointing out the error in the blanket generalization of Squamish north to Lillooet as occupied traditionally by the Coast Salish peoples, rather than the specific area of Whistler referenced in this article. In response to your question re: interpretation, Lil'wat as an example, shares cultural and kinship ties to the Stl'atl'imx, while traditionally having occupied territory that extends to the Pacific Ocean. What follows is completely anecdotal, however I have never heard of the Lil'wat people identifying as Coast Salish in any official capacity, and I have heard the term Interior Salish being used less and less in favor of Stl'atl'imx. I am by no means an expert when it comes to the familial and cultural histories of the Lil'wat, however I am confident in saying that generalizing Squamish north to Lilloeet as traditionally Coast Salish is incorrect.

Lol who wrote this? The Lil’wat (and all of the other unique First Nations that occupy territory north towards Lillooet) are Stl’atl’imx, not Coast Salish. Nice job research team!

How is Mons a S2S company? I’m genuinely curious, not like they have a shop here or anything..

Is that what people are calling the Old Midget entrance now?

@JesseMelamed: Was this when all your kit got stolen? If so, great introductory story!

KHS is still making bikes?
