Banff Rock:

Material in this section of the web site is from the proposed Banff Rock guidebook which is currently in preparation. A tentative table of contents is given below with some new and sample information provided for use and review. Any comments about this information would be much appreciated by the author Chris Perry who may be contacted at chris.perry@sait.ca. The quality of the finished guidebook depends to some extent on input from the climbing community - please help in any way you can, even the smallest detail! Thanks.
