The plan is to drive out on Friday after work
and camp at Ya Ha Tinda - we will have the
club's dome tent as a cook tent and the club's
stoves. We will arrange a communal evening meal
for the Friday night (for a small nominal
charge to cover costs), suggest a pot luck
dinner on the Saturday + Sunday night, but you
will need to bring your own breakfasts, lunches
and snacks. One night will have a pirate
theme, due to the only pun we could think of
for Ya Ha Tinda.
Climbing: The aim is to climb the range of ice
climbs round there over the next couple of
days, which may include crossing the Red Deer
River for access.
To be considered as a participant, please send
me a short email describing your (ice)climbing
experience if you haven't been on ice with us.
A more detailed gear list etc. will get sent
out once participants are moved from the
waiting list.
Required Items to Bring:
Ice Climbing Gear, Winter Camping Gear (depending
on conditions, at least down to -15°C), food,
booze, headlamp, radios, camping chair.

The Dry Ranges are called dry for a reason - we
may cancel, or propose an alternative venue if
the
ice isn't in condition.
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.
