Notes:
Before ski season is fully upon us come and do some practice. Wildwood park has plenty of space to run some scenarios. I'll bring some flowerpots that we can hide beacons under. Note: This is not a training course; merely an Opportunity to practice and refresh skills that have already been acquired. Therefore AST-1 or higher is required.

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.
