About this audio guide
This guide to Sulphur Mountain in Banff follows Norman Sanson, the museum curator who turned an act of civic duty into three decades of solo hiking to a weather station near the summit. You will hear about the observatory he talked officials into building in nineteen oh three, the vows he kept breaking to quit the winter climbs, and the sunrise gathering that marked one of his ascents. Look for the boardwalk out to the old stone observatory from the gondola's upper terminal.
