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.
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.
Trip Feedback If you have any feedback, positive or negative, concerning this trip or any other, we want to hear from you! You can send any feedback you may have to the Section Chair.
