getting warmer... its called Flirting with the Bosch. In the Bow Valley but on Mt Borgeau. There's a classic 200m WI5 ice climb (Borgeau Left) just out of sight behind - you can see the remnants of snow/ice at the bottom of the pic.

micro TR... I walk up the hill after work. 30mins walk to the cliff from my office, then 100m of bolted limestone (4 sport pitches). There are 6 or 7 other rock routes either side of it. Nothing to fly across the world for, but its fun when its right outside the door. The rock is good quality prickly limestone, just under vertical. Pretty typical for the area - better rock than Yam (Yam is overhyped choss).
