Itinerary:
I'm camping out in Kananaskis this weekend near Mt. Kidd, so I'm looking for anyone who wants to climb in the area. Possible locations include Barrier, Baldy, Wasootch, or Heart Creek. You would have to meet at the climb or arrange a carpool from the city, as I will be out there already. I can help coordinate the carpool for those who sign up, if needed. I will need at least one person who can provide a safe lead belay but all must be able to provide a safe top-rope belay. Please let me know in the comments section if you have your own gear (rope, draws, anchor package) and if you can lead/lead belay. I will set up top ropes for anyone who wants to TR.
Required Items to Bring:
- harness, helmet, belay device, rock shoes
- rope/draws/sport anchor if you have them
- lunch, water, rain clothes

Recommended Items to Bring:
- sunscreen, chalk, bug spray

Notes:
Please let me know in the comments section when you reply if you have your own gear (rope, draws, anchor material, etc.) and if you plan on lead climbing or top roping. Thanks.

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.
