Itinerary:
Slide-Show Double-Header: i) a Review of The North Face Leadership Course by Paul O'Brien-Kelly, and ii) a short presentation on some of the Trekking Peaks of Nepal in the Everest, Annapurna and Langtang regions by Robin Owens and Dana Engler. Paul OBK will present a review of what he learnt at the TNF Leadership course last summer - if you have not yet taken the course and are curious what's involved, this should tell you all you need to know. Then Robin Owens and Dana Engler will try to tempt you to fly to Nepal someday, with pictures and tales from several different trips over the years to tackle some of the relatively friendly "Trekking Peaks" of Nepal - these are typically peaks around the 6,000m mark which can be climbed in one good alpine day from a basecamp close to snowline, usually after a very pleasant week-long trek up one of the valleys in the Everest, Annapurna or Langtang region. Enjoy!
Recommended Items to Bring:

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.
Trip Feedback
If you have any feedback, positive or negative, concerning this trip or any other, we want to hear from you! You can send any feedback you may have to the Section Chair.
