OKay GS had that coming. I'm In Australia so info on this area is limited especially for climbing. Can you guys point me in the right direction for where i can find sites with maps of climbing areas and sites where i might be able to find a job and a place to stay. I think i ready to leave the basement. Cheers Nathan

Lets make it more specific.Which would be best for: climbing and skiing on your door step, climbing partners easy to find, and the clincher job opportunities. I only aspire to be a part time kitchen hand. Climb by day, work by night, free food what more could a climbing bum want besides accommodation, gear and a lift pass? N&K

Hi everyone, My girlfriend and I are moving to Canada this November/December to work for a year, maybe a bit more. So we're looking for a place where I can pretty much take up ice climbing and mountaineering full time, I'm new to mountaineering and ice climbing but want to bring myself to a reasonably high standard. My girlfriend doesn't climb, but were both keen to do some back country skiing, her more than me I'm a rock climber (onsighting trad 11a/b). Our thoughts have been Banff/Canmore for the winter then Sqamish for the summer this way we'll see a bit more of the country. Any thoughts/suggestions/info for any area in Canada will be appreciated. Thanks Nathan and Karralla
