Ice Climbing in The Ghost (instead of Waterton) - Saturday, Jan 30, 2016 The Basics: Event Type:   Ice Climbing   Event Location:   Waterton Lakes National Park   Date(s) & Time:   Saturday, Jan 30, 2016 06:00 AM   Registration Cut Off:   Friday, Jan 22, 2016 09:00 PM   Event Duration:   2 days   Difficulty Rating:   D3 - See Conversion Chart   Trip Coordinator(s):   Keith Fournier Hernando Ortega Arango   Participant Info: Who's Invited:   Members Only   Attendee Screening:   Attendees are Pre-Screened Maximum Group Size:   6 Maximum No. Guests:   0 Minimum Group Size:   3 Maximum No. Guests Per Member:   0 Number Registered So Far:   6 (View sign-ups, waiting list) Are Dogs Permitted:   No Itinerary: The idea is to meet in the South of the city on early Saturday morning and drive to Waterton Lakes National Park in order to start climbing around 9 am. We will camp, and climb the second day, and then return to Calgary in the evening. We will spend a day in the Quick and Dirty Area, and the other day will depend on conditions and climbers/leaders abilities. Few days before the trip, we will call the Park to confirm conditions. If conditions are not favourable, our PLAN B is to climb in The Ghost or the Dry Range (near Ya Ha Tinda ranch). Camping: Pass Creek picnic site, located on the park's Entrance Parkway, about four kilometers from the entrance gate, offers a sheltered winter campground, FREE OF CHARGE!. Food: Vimy's Lounge and Grill is open year round and the idea is to eat there on Sat evening. You should bring your lunches for both days and breakfast for Sunday morning. Please note THIS IS NOT A GUIDED TRIP, and it may include multi-pitch ice climbing in a remote location. We are open to add a couple of spots if other ice climbing leaders sign up.

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.
