[MCR] PR for the MCR

Hi folks:

The following organizations/web sites have been made aware of the new MCR:
- live the vision
- rockclimbing.com
- rock and ice site
- mountain magic
- ACC
- Parks Canada

If you know of anyone else we could tell, please either forward the
coordinates to my email address, modrock at Informalex dot org, or (even
better!) spread the word yourself and let me know whom you've contacted.

Feel free to use the following by way of an introduction when spreading the
word (or compose something of your own):

---------------------------------
I am pleased to announce the new public Mountain Conditions Report.

A group of trained and certified, professional guides with support from the
Association of Canadian Mountain Guides (ACMG) has launched the "Mountain
Conditions Report" (MCR). The MCR consists of field observations made by
trained and certified professional guides.

Reports are posted on an irregular basis, when guides see something worth
noting. In addition, we endeavour to provide a weekly synopsis every
Thursday evening or Friday morning which summarizes general conditions.

All reports and synopses are prepared and submitted by guides on a volunteer
basis and the ACMG provides administrative and technical support to make
public presentation of this information possible.

The goal of making this information available to the public is to assist
recreational mountaineers in planning their trips and aid the process of
making reasonable, informed decisions when in the field.

You can use the MCR in two ways:
- subscribe to receive bleeding edge reports straight to your inbox
- look through the MCR postings with your web browser.

For more information and to sign up, visit http://acmg.ca/mcr

Please help us by spreading the word!

Regards,
Tom Wolfe
