Itinerary:
The tentative plan is to get up very early Friday and drive to the Lake O'Hara parking lot in order to jump on the 8:30am bus. (I am also considering driving up Thurs. night and staying at the LL Hostel). Friday, we will hike up to the Abbott Hut and crash. Sat. morning, we will get up around 5am and attempt S. Victoria (although conditions may not be suitable and may turn around). Sunday will be another early start (5am) and will run up LeFroy (expect to be up/down in 3-4 hrs). If we start Sunday at 5am, we could still have time to come back to the hut, have a hardy breakfast afterward and hike back out to the bus in plenty of time.
Required Items to Bring:
Regular Alpine rack (more details will be explained once a team is arranged)

How to Get There:
Event Directions:   Drive along Elbow Drive and turn east onto 56 Ave. I am the 5th house on the north side of 56th Ave. (SW). It's a 4-plex with army green stucco. My unit faces the back alley on the NE corner of the bldg.  
Carpool Departure Time:   05:30 AM
Carpool Location:   My house

Cancellation/Partial Attendance:
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.
