Product Description

The Association of Bow Valley Rock Climbers (TABVAR) is a not for profit organization, funded by donations, whose purpose is to promote the responsible development of safe rock climbing areas serving the Calgary, Canmore, Banff and Lake Louise climbing communities. TABVAR provides funds for fixed anchors on routes and for "environmental" projects such as erosion protection measures at the base of cliffs. Since its inception in 1993, TABVAR has raised and disbursed more than $60,000!

TABVAR relies on donations from generous climbers like yourself. If you climb in the Rockies, you no doubt have used anchors paid for by TABVAR. Please consider making a donation to:

TABVAR,
P.O. Box 61236
Kensington RPO
Calgary, Alberta T2N 4S6

Voted 5/5

I use this site all the time, the topos are normally top notch. Tons of great climbs can be found here that are not yet published. A true non-profit for the sake of the climbing community.

""You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know.""   --Rene Daumal
