Itinerary:

This trip is intended for families with young kids.

Meet at the Black Prince Day Use Area on the Smith Dorrien/Spray Lakes Rd.

We will sign waivers and then head off together on the trail. Please read the waiver prior to the trip. You can find it at:
http://www.alpineclubofcanada.ca/activities/waiver s.html

The plan is to hike up to Warspite Lake and then play around a bit with the kids, enjoy the views, have a snack or early lunch, then go back the way we came to be back to the trail head by early afternoon and ready for more afternoon activities with the Rock Review crowd, perhaps at Wasootch.

Please review our participant responsibility guidelines!


*Cancellation Policy*: If a participant is unable to attend a paid course or trip, there will be no refund unless the participant finds a suitable replacement that is acceptable to the trip coordinator. Acceptable waiting list candidates will have priority. It will then be the participant's responsibility to recover funds from the replacement. If the coordinator cancels an event, participants get a refund (less any non-recoverable costs). Note that ACC National does not refund hut fees due to weather, delay, closures, or any other reasons. The Calgary Section of the ACC is a not for profit club and we only charge attendees what it costs us to provide courses or trips.
