Itinerary: |
We'll drive to Exshaw then scramble up the ridge to Door Jamb Mountain and then on to Loder Peak. If time and conditions permit we may even continue towards the high point of the ridge, until the scrambling gets difficult or dangerous. Optional descent via Jura Creek.
We'll be going at a moderately fast pace, with occasional stops for photos or a quick snack, plus a longer stop on top.

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.
