"Everyone knew in 1906 that mountaineering was dangerous. One of the primary goals of the Alpin Club of Canada was to accelerate the development of local climbing skills so that Canadians could become competent at traveling on their own mountains. Through annual mountaineerin camps, the Alpin club created the first courses in mountaincraft in the country and in so doing established a century-long relationship with professional mountain guides
