Itinerary:
We have the AO Wheeler hut booked for the nights of November 22nd and 23rd for a family trip. Members are invited to come with their families and enjoy the snow of Roger's Pass in the comfort of the Wheeler hut. There will be lots of family winter activities such as snow fort making, snowshoeing, snowball fighting, snowman making, tobogganing and whatever else you can think of to do in the early season snow! Kids of all ages are welcome, bring your parents!

We'll rendezvous as we can at the parking lot on Friday afternoon or evening and port our stuff in the 2 kilometers into the hut, bring your sled or toboggan to haul your gear! For those of you who haven't been there, please contact the Trip Coordinator for details. We'll leave with beaming smiles and a renewed bounce in our step on Sunday.

Potluck meals will be organized. Family Trip - all ages welcome.

Self-led trips of our own making.
Required Items to Bring:
Depends on what activities that you plan!
Great food for the potluck meals!!

Recommended Items to Bring:
Ear plugs most likely high on the list for some!! :) Song books and musical instruments if you have them!

How to Get There:
Event Directions:   Access is off the Trans-Canada Highway approximately 3.5 kilometers west of the Rogers Pass information centre.

On the south side of the highway there is a sign for the turnoff to the Illecillewaet Campground and parking area.
 

Notes:
Be sure to register all adults and add the kids as guests with their ages please! This trip is a great way to get your kids out in the mountains. It's also a great way to meet other ACC members with kids to get out and do things with.

Cancellation/Partial Attendance:
Please review our participant responsibility guidelines!

Payment is due by November 15, 2013. Cancellation after November 15, 2013 will only receive a refund if a replacement is found. Adult cost for hut is $60/person, each child is $20/person. Payments can be made as outlined above.
*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.
