      The Banff Mountain Film Festival is coming to Wellington at the end of this month. Like last year there will be two evenings of film at the Paramount Cinema. There is a short promo video on the NZAC website to give you an idea of the sort of stuff to expect …

      There were some great films last year and this year should be just as good. Get your tickets from Mainly Tramping, Mountain Designs or Bivouac

      Spot prizes too!

      Don’t forget – the first night of the film festival is this Thursday. Tickets from Mainly Tramping, Mountain Designs or Bivouac.

      Films showing include Patagonia-A travel to the end of the world:

      Attempting the first unsupported traverse of the Southern Patagonia Icecap, B?rge Ousland (appearing in person) and Thomas Ulrich start from the small village of Tortel in August 2003. After three days of paddling into the Patagonian fjords with two kayaks each, they reach the bottom of the Jorge Montt Glacier; from here they carry their equipment up and start skiing across the ice cap. This film is most of all about the spirit of adventure. Few expeditions have had to master so many different skills to reach their goal.

      Plus other films featuring – kayaking, snow sports, bouldering, climbing, ducks and lego!
