| Itinerary: |
The NE ridge of Mt. Bell is a moderate climb on excellent quartzite by Rockies standards,
with one pitch of lower 5th class climbing followed by 4th class terrain to the summit.
From the Taylor Lake trailhead, the base of the ridge is accessed from partway between Taylor and O'Brien Lakes. Descent is the scramble route down the S ridge / SW slopes to the col above O'Brien Lake.
See October 2007 Chinook.

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.
