Itinerary:

This event was rescheduled from November 4th. Attendees will be temporarily screened to give those already registered in the original event priority and then move to first-come first served. An afternoon session was added so that more people can attend.

A free session by Chris Girard where we can discuss all sorts of techniques. Build community and make friends for touring season before there’s enough snow to ride on. 

The time listed in the event right now is an estimate and start time will be confirmed closer to the date.

This is a free event, but it is important to show up if you register. Chris is kindly helping out the club with his enthusiasm and wealth of knowledge, it will be a worthwhile day!

Required Items to Bring:

Beacons and winter clothes

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.
