"Over the past 100 years, climbers have been pushing standards in the Canadian Rockies. From long alpine ridges to steep north faces, the Rockies are synonymous with cutting edge ascents. Peaks such as Robson, Chephren, Kitchener, Twins, and Alberta elude the many and reward the few. Many of the big faces were climbed between the 1960s and 1990, the golden age of alpinism in the Rockies ...

Autorenporträt
Brandon Pullan graduated from Ontario’s Lakehead University and moved to Canmore, Alberta, shortly after finishing his studies. After spending his youth climbing the hard and steep winter routes found in Canada's eastern mountains, he found himself feeling right at home in the Canadian Rockies and eventually became a guide with the Association of Canadian Mountain Guides. He spends as much time as he can climbing and has conquered some of the most classic alpine routes in North America and Europe. One of his recent noteworthy climbs was the second ascent of Abron's Ridge of the North Twin out of the Black Hole in the Canadian Rockies, first climbed in 1965. Brandon started writing for publications in the late 90's and is now the editor-in-chief of Gripped, Canada’s climbing magazine. He has over 100 published articles in print and countless contributions can also be found online. His alpine pursuits have introduced him to dozens of legendary climbers and mentors, motivating him to compile and archive collections of stories from this older generation of mountaineering greats. Brandon lives in Canmore, Alberta, Canada.
