Itinerary:
I've been wanting to hike the Pocaterra ridge for a while and not on a w.end day when you might hear traffic the whole time when on the ridge so this seems to be perfect timing! Best would be to have 2 cars for 1 at each end..we'll see how many sign up :) Elevation gain: 550m Elevation loss: 875m Hiking time: 5-8 hours.
Required Items to Bring:
Layered clothing that includes a toque, a pair of gloves, hiking boots & poles & of course enough food and drink for the day.

Recommended Items to Bring:
cell phone, camera, sunscreen, cash for the carpool..

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.
