In the Shadow of the Chief
Although we can't embed it on our site, you can head over to knowledge.ca and watch In the Shadow of the Chief.
Synopsis:
On a rain-soaked morning in May 1961, amidst the snow-capped mountains and verdant forests of Squamish, BC, two young climbers started up the "unclimbable" Stawamus Chief. Within two weeks, news of their attempt had spread and soon 12,000 cars crowded the base of the Chief, with onlookers convinced they were about to witness a deadly fall. Braving relentless heat, mosquitoes, and a barrage of reporters, it seemed at times doubtful that Ed and Jim would finish the climb. Using never-before-seen archival footage, this documentary is a unique look at a part of BC climbing history and the spirit of the community that rallied behind the climbers.

Alpine Lessons in the Canadian Rockies
Josh Wharton has some basic, but good tips for climbing in the alpine. My favorite, stay positive, even when walking through slush that goes up to your knee and you can't feel your toes.
