Itinerary:
Wednesdays suck. Half way through the week and the longest time between weekends and the mountains. Let's shorten our mountainless stretch by going for a quick after work scramble.

We'll meet at Our Lady of the Assumption at 5:30 and leave as quickly as possible for the scramble destination of the day.

The pace we'll be doing depends a little on the destination -easier destinations mean we can be a little more relaxed - figure that you should be able to do the objective in something in the neighbourhood of three hours. You don't need to be super fit, or experienced, these will be friendly trips.

Headlamps and helmets are absolutely mandatory - we'll be out well after dark - you should understand what that means and be comfortable with the increased commitment level. If you have any questions at all, just shoot me an email. We're keeping objectives reasonably low on the technical scale in light of the time of day and limited time we've got.

We'll be getting back really late - if you have a strict bed time, this isn't for you. (The first three scrambles of the Hump Day series had us back at the car at 9:30 - 10:30pm)

These trips run on a principle of group collaboration. Everyone is expected to be involved in decision making and safety of the party. Like I said, you don't need to be super experienced, but you will be expected to be an active contributor. I do my best to keep my party members safe, and you should too.

Edit: Dogs are very welcome on the trip! Actually, preference may be given to people bringing fun mountain dogs for me to play with :). Please check the objective to be sure that your dog is up for the evening and email me with any questions or concerns.

Required Items to Bring:
Helmet, headlamp, scrambling gear, snacks & water.

Recommended Items to Bring:
Spare headlamp, trekking pole(s), fun mountain dog

*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.
