This BITS session is open to both Split-
boarders and aspiring ski tourers; preference
will be given to split-boarders and to those

destinations. The intention of this series is
to keep this group more or less together as we
progress through the season into more
interesting terrain.
Destinations may change due to weather and
avalanche conditions. Dates are subject to
change as well.

Please inform me if you are unable to attend
any of the scheduled dates well in advance so I
may invite a participant on the waiting

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.
