Itinerary:
UPDATE: GYM CLOSES AT 8PM IN THE SUMMER, SO EVENT HAS BEEN CHANGED TO START AT 5:30PM Get back in the "groove" for summer crack climbing. This is unlike other climbing gyms. A unique opportunity to practice jamming vertical splitter cracks, and develop the technique. A very worthwhile exercise before heading climbing anywhere climbing Granite objectives. Climbing tap is essential on these cracks made from concrete. If you haven't climbed at UofC before, you will need to watch a short video and pass your safety/belay test first. You can contact Ashley (climbing wall coordinator) tofind out when she can do your test: climb@ucalgary.ca , 403.220.3695 The video is played on a fixed interval, so please call to save yourself a very long wait.

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.
