Paula Corbeil and I have coordinated with an
Alpine Guide to provide supplemental instruction
specifically focused on terrain and route choices
pertaining to avalanche terrain. This will be a
two day instruction with an overnight in Lake
Louise at the hostel. AST 1 and 2 are
prerequisites for this event. The objective is
to improve route finding awareness and selection
for alpine touring and skiing. Minimal time will
be spent on other related skills (eg. transceiver
search, digging, etc.). There will be six
participants, there is currently one spot still
available. Cost for the two days will be $300.
Participants must make their own accommodation
arrangements in Lake Louise for Saturday, January
17.

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.
