Itinerary: |
Let's go do some top roping at Bear Spirit!
This trip is open to everyone, including
STICKSSS. Bear Spirit is a great place to
practice your technique on steeper ice. The ice
at Bear Spirit tends to be WI3 and WI4, so I'd
recommend STICKSSS participants go on at least
one trip prior to this to get their feet under
them on ice.
We'll meet at Our Lady of Assumption school in
Calgary at 7:30 and carpool from there.
Bear Spirit does not get much sun so please
make sure to bring lots of layers! Also be away
that the approach to the crag involves an ice
step. There is a fixed rope and I am happy to
set up a belay if needed, but everyone must be
prepared to put their crampons on for the last
5-10 minutes of the approach.
|
Required Items to Bring: |
Harness, ice tools, technical crampons, belay
device, lots of layers. Rope and anchor setup
if you have them. If you
are not sure email me!!

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.
