Itinerary:
From the summit of Mount Sparrowhawk the 360 degree view of Kananaskis Country is simply breathtaking. It is the highest peak in the area. Elevation gain is 1350m so we will set a reasonable pace for the day. Best to come prepared to keep up (ie, a reasonable level of fitness is required). Expect to be on top by early afternoon (or sooner) and back to down in time for dinner.
Required Items to Bring:
Lunch, water, HELMET, rain jacket, good scrambling boots, sun glasses, HELMET, sun screen, trekking poles, light gloves, warm layer, HELMET, gas money

Recommended Items to Bring:

How to Get There:
Carpool Departure Time:   07:00 AM
Carpool Location:   Assumption School
Carpool Directions:   34 Avenue and Sarcee Trail NW. I will require one other driver with a reliable vehicle who is willing to take two passengers.

Notes:
For this trip I will only be inviting members who have not done a trip with me in the past. New-comers and unknown friends...this is your chance for a fun and casual day out.

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.
