Itinerary:
Meet at the Healy Creek Trailhead at 8:00am, hopefully beating the resort skiing crowd. Depending on avi conditions/group discussion skin up Healy Creek Trail towards Simpson Pass (if avi conditions are terrible we will skin up the ski out). Once over the pass we will make our way to the Twin Cairns. If time and conditions allows we maybe able to get some turns just outside the resort boundary on some mellow terrain. The return to the parking lot will be via the Sunshine Ski Out.
Required Items to Bring:
Digital beacon, probe, shovel AT ski gear or equivalent

Recommended Items to Bring:
Lunch and snacks Clothes for spring like conditions Some cash in case we choose to stop at the lodge for a snack.

How to Get There:
Event Directions:   The Healy Creek Trailhead is at the very back of the Sunshine Resort parking lot.  

Notes:
I am going to be in Canmore this weekend and will meet everyone at the trailhead. Those coming from Calgary may want to carpool, I will send out a group email to everyone so it is possible to coordinate that.

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.
