Last weekend's trip to Roger's Pass was a success. Like an
epic, huge success. Why? Because we found deep, soft snow. It
was face shots all weekend. Obviously I'm stoked to go back.
Just like last weekend, the game plan is to do some motel
accessed skiing in Rogers Pass. This will parallel another
similar (and full) trip heading out. Only that other trip
doesn't know where I found powder last weekend. And I ain't
telling. We'll let them fight sun crust while we try not to
drown in powder.
We'll be leaving from Our Lady of the Assumption
School at 6pm and then staying in a motel in
Golden for the next two
nights while bagging turns by day. This trip is
friendly to a broad range of experience levels,
but you should be prepared for ~1500m days and you should be
comfortable being involved in
your safety decisions.
We'll be staying in a motel or hostel type
environment - I'll book some rooms as things get
closer and numbers firm up. You should be prepared
to pay up to about $75 total for the two nights
accommodation and we'll do one big food group for
the Saturday night meal (we'll shoot for a room
with a kitchenette).

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.
