This trip is for those who are interested in
getting experience on a multi-pitch or need a
refresher on doing multi pitch and are
comfortable climbing a 5.8/5.9 and comfortable
with exposure. You must have knowledge on
belaying a leader, setting up anchors and
rappelling. No worries if you feel a bit rusty
on these skills, we will spend time reviewing
it.
Depending on the skill set of the team, I can
either lead the entire climb, or we can take
turns leading if participants are keen to do so
(I'm happy either way). Expected climbing time is 4-6 hours including a short approach & rap
descent.
Required Items to Bring:
Personal climbing gear (Minimum is helmet,
harness, belay device (Guided ATC, Reverso,
etc),
personal anchor, four locking carabiners, 2 non-
locking biners, quickdraws if you have them,
sling for anchor, climbing shoes, food & water
for the day, appropriate
clothing for the weather forecast, small
backpack you can climb with.
Notes:
Participants will be selected. If I haven't
climbed with you before,
please send me an email with a description of
your climbing experience. Note: your position
on the wait-list is totally irrelevant to
whether or not you'll be selected for the trip.
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.
