| Itinerary: |
|
One day ski trip. Approx. 20km round trip with 1000m of elevation gain. This trip is not for the faint of heart...it is a long slog up with a very steep climb to the col at the head of the Robertson Glacier. The run down is fabulous if there is snow and a nightmare if it's crusted. You may experience sunburn, legburn and/or windburn...along with a general sense of utter exhaustion. But it is well worth it.

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.
