Along the gorgeous Sea-to-Sky Highway to Squamish sits one of BC's most famous hikes, the Stawamus Chief. At the base is the gorgeous Shannon Falls, a gushing cascade that leads onto the trail that connects with the Chief. The hike is one of the more fun ones I've done, complete with ladders and ropes! There are 3 peaks at the Stawamus Chief, and you can hike 1, 2 or all 3. The best view is from the first peak, but it's typically the busiest, so my favourite is the second peak.
