Mountain climbing

I enjoyed mountain climbing in the canadian Rockies when I had summer jobs in Alberta back in 1954 and '55. All my 1954 slides and some of the 1955 ones got lost in all the moves I've had in the last 45 years but I did find some from 1955 that I can show even though they have been damaged by humidity and time. I salvaged some pictures of Pyramid Mountain  (55/06/08), of the Canadian Alpine Club's annual summer camp which was at Mount Robson that year (55/07/28) and some of a long weekend outing (55/08/21) from Edmonton to Mount Rhonda which is about half way between Banff and Jasper.

I continue developing this site for the pleasure of sharing the joys of discovery with you. Meeting wonderful people of all skin colours, ethnic origins and beliefs has inspired me to set up the Humanist Foundation of Quebec to promote critical thinking and intercultural tolerance.
