Write Up:
We all headed down to the Telus World of Science to take in the IMAX movie, the Alps. The movie had some great shots of the Alps and we learned about the formation of the Alps, the Eiger, avalanches and Switzerland in general. It was fun to see their remake of the first climbers of the Eiger in the 1800s - no equipment like today and smoking a pipe along the way. And amazing to watch Harlin and his 2 climbing mates climb the North Face of the Eiger in 3 days.
Thanks to all who came out to the movie!
