Banff

The name of this town might ring a bell with any climbers out there as it hosts one of the worlds biggest Mountain Film festivals each year. That should give you a good idea as to what there is to do around here...

As ever I'm too late for the winter climbing season, and the summer hasn't yet begun proper so it's still too cold/snowy for pure rock climbing. But this place is definitley high on my list of spots to return to. Just looking out of the window now I can see a clean slab of rock rising for a good few hundred metres, the temptation to go and try it anyway is very real.

Still, they've got an indoor wall and I've wandered up some of the hills instead of climbing them. Nice to be outside again after spending time in cities.
