There might be someone interested and not knowing that this is happening... I found out too late last year!  http://www.nzalpine.wellington.net.nz/2012/06/banff-mountain-film-festival-2012/ I'm planing on going - I know its the same time as the meeting but this is only happening once a year. Maybe we could talk tramping club things ...

Note from Terra: Don't be afraid to come if you are a beginner - you may not win anything, but it will be a fantastic way to increase your skills, knowledge and meet other climbers! :D SO WHAT'S THIS FESTIVAL ALL ABOUT? Bringing together the top winter alpine climbers in NZ as a means of advancing and promoting modern mixed climbing. ...
