As part of the Training and Leadership Committee's
activities, we will be leading an aspiring trip
leader outing to a front range scramble. We will
be heading up a moderately rated scramble and will
choose the objective based on the prevailing
conditions and weather forecast.
The day will see us review trip planning right
from the initial planning of the trip to the final
good byes at the end of the day. As we meet up at
the car pool site and then during the actual
scramble, we will look at the various aspects of
trip leading, engaging in group discussion,
scenarios as well as each of us taking the lead
throughout the day.
This trip is open for those members that are not
yet trip leaders and wish to be vetted to lead
trips this summer, as well as those that may wish
to refresh their skills. Please ensure that you
have current first aid training or will have this
training in the next 2 months.

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.
