Event #3 in the BITSB program.
This time out we enter the realm of big mountain
riding with an ascent of Mt Field. The long slog
up is rewarded with a 1300m vertical descent.
This trip will be a 16km round trip. Participants
should be prepared for a long day with up to 6 hours
of up track followed by an amazing run down. If you
don't have it in you to maintain the pace please
wait for another smaller objective on Event #4.

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.
