Mount Engadine stands proud at the south end of
Spray Lakes, and offers superb views of the
region. The northwest ridge has lots of fine,
challenging and often exposed scrambling. There's
other adventure too, with route-finding and
bushwhacking, esp. lower down.
- Scrambling rating: Difficult
- Hiking distance: 8km
- Vertical gain: 1200m
- Climbing time: 9-11 hours
**Please only sign up for this trip if you are in
shape for 1200m+ vertical of climbing, moving at
a moderate pace with few breaks, and are
comfortable on difficult, exposed scrambling
terrain.**

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.
