Busy Week

Well IT wise it’s been a busy week up here. After several weeks of preparation we switched over our main database server on Friday. So far everything is working well and now it’s time for all the tedious, but essential, documentation!
On Friday this shift saw its first overnight guests for the new winter season. A hiking trip stopped over – with all the mild weather and very little snow or ice they had a very Fall like experience. If you think you’d like to try something like this then see the Partner-Led Climbing Trips page for more details. Or perhaps you’d prefer the luxury of a trip in our snow tractor? If so check out our Winter EduTrips.
