There are hills and mountains very close to everywhere in Calgary - it is at the foothills of the Rockies. So wherever you lived you could be somewhere spectacular within the hour.

I am pleased, however, to have made so many NW converts and stolen them from Glaswegian's dirty south.
LOL. I also would recomment the NW. It's closer to the Rocky mountain parks for one thing.

Dalhousie was our first choice, we just stumbled across a great flat in Ranchlands. And my aunt lives in Arbour Lake, so I was familiar with the Crowfoot Area when we visited in April

Of course the selling point of Ranchlands was that the bus was right opposite our flat! and went straight to Dalhousie!

still beats the hour commute i used to do from Herts into London any day!

Now i just need a good pair of sunglasses
