Itinerary: |
As part of the Annual Ice Review, we will meet at Shouldice
Athletic Park @ 06:45 to sign waivers and carpool, if required.
Carpool leaves for Banff @ 07:00 with arrival at Tunnel
Mountain Village II campground @ 08:30 to set up camp. I will
be staying in Banff Friday night, so will meet at the event. We
can also meet at the trail head just off Hwy 1 on 1A @ 08:30, if
the group prefers to start earlier and set up camp after
climbing. Approach is approximately one hour. Climbing
options include WI 3-4 and mixed in the M 6-8 range. Top
rope or lead, depending on skill level of group. We will be
back to the campground in time for dinner at 6:00 PM.

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.
