The CKCS climbing team joined Laurie Schwartz, producer of a play (under the auspices of Banff National Park Mountainwit) “As Far As I Can Take You”, and actor David Thomson for the lovely walk in to the joint CKCS/ACC Mt Robson Centennial camp on August 25 .
After we mingled with the ACC team members, David launched smoothly into his role as Conrad Kain and entertained both climbers and a crowd of appreciative hikers from the nearby campsite with a monologue that touched on the highlights of the great Austrian guide’s life in Canada.
