That I just don't understand. A former co-worker who had lived in Calgary his entire life went to Banff for the first time in his mid-20s. It just boggled my mind.

IMO the access to outdoors stuff (well, mountains, not watersports) is the biggest draw to Calgary and the main reason I prefer to call it home. Talking to guys on the chairlift at Kicking Horse who woke up at 4am to make a day ski trip just depresses me to think about.
