Itinerary:
THIS IS NOT A COURSE! This trip is intended for reviewing basic rock rescue. We will review tying off a belay, escaping the belay, 3-1 raising system, tandem rappell, releasing an autoblock atc device, and any other skill that is reasonable. These skills will be practiced on the ground.
Required Items to Bring:
Harness, 4 identical non locking biners, 2 identical locking munter biners, 2 7mm x 1.5m prussics, 2 7mm x 5 m prussics, atc belay device, 2 double length shoulder slings, warm clothes

Recommended Items to Bring:
Camera, sunscreen, food, water, hardshell

How to Get There:
Event Directions:   From Eau Claire walk across the bike path to the west side of princes island park, where the Enbridge stage is.  

Notes:
As mentioned before, this is NOT a course. It is simply a great way to join with fellow ACC members to review rock rescue Basics. If you are interested in learning rock rescue, I highly recommend that you take a course thru a certified ACMG guide. If you are unsure if this event is for you or if you have any questions, please contact the trip coordinator

Cancellation/Partial Attendance:
Please review our participant responsibility guidelines!
Please only sign up if you are sure to attend.
*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.
