Itinerary:
The main purpose of this trip is to clean the Elk Lakes hut and prepare it for the busy winter season ahead. However, if we finish early, there will be time to ski, ice climb, do photography, or whatever else in the area. My job as coordinator extends only to the hut cleaning, so once that is done, we can regroup and do other activities. The National Club will be providing food and drinks(BYOB), but we will have to carry it in. Also, we have the hut booked at no charge for the entire weekend, so if you are interested in going in on Friday instead, let me know. Neil Baker, one of the ACC roaming custodians will be joining us. As well, I can arrange for club ropes if required.
Required Items to Bring:
I don't know how much snow will be on the approach, but you might need skis or snowshoes to get to and from the hut. Plus, dust masks, rubber gloves, etc. will be required for cleaning.

Recommended Items to Bring:
whatever other gear you need to enjoy the Elk Lakes area with

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.
