Plan is to go skiing during the day Saturday and then set up camp close by Burstall Pass in Kananaskis Country. On Sunday we can go skiing in the morning and then from 11 AM -2:30 PM there will be some snowpack analysis workshops, companion rescue techniques, avalanche transceiver practice, avalanche terrain recognition, avalanche dog and recco search demonstrations. Best of all free hotdogs and hot chocolate!
Trip objectives will be whatever mother nature
decides is "in-season" that week! I invite
other trip leaders to post trips around this event and stay with us overnight on Saturday night or simply stop on by anytime for fireside chat and some hot cocoa...

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.
