| Itinerary: |
|
We'll head out Friday night to stay at Rampart
Creek hostel. Then out for whatever ice climbs
in the area are appealing.
We might climb as a group, or we might break up
to climb separately for the day & meet up back
at
the hostel. We'll come up with a plan once we
are closer to the actual date and know who is
joining the trip.
Being able to lead ice isn't a requirement, but
anyone joining this trip should have at least
some previous ice climbing experience, be able
to
offer a safe lead belay on double ropes, and be
willing & able to participate in group safety
decisions.
We've already booked 8 spots at the hostel,
which
will be $48/person for the weekend. The hostel
provides bedding, so no need to bring your own.
(we've added two more beds to make the trip for
8
now)

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.
