Alex Megos and crew made it to Squamish on Monday and didn’t stop to take a breath! Heading right to The Big Show in Chek Canyon, Alex made an attempt to on-sight the hardest route on the wall, Superman (5.14c), only to fall on the last move! Alex then went on to complete that route second try, using dyno beta at the end. Going back the next wall, Alex completed all the link ups on the wall, essentially ticking the entire Big Show in two days.
Tonight, Alex will be putting on a free slide show at Patagonia Vancouver (starting at the time of this post). Talking to Alex today in the boulders after he finished checking out Dreamcatcher, he said that he had never experienced holds like the ones on The Big Show and was worried they were going to give him trouble. I guess not!
As temperatures cool, I am sure we will see more Megos action!
