A day of top roping or leading at Sheep River.
We expect all participants to be able to safely
belay and clean ice anchors. Participants who
do not lead are still welcome. (Please bring an
anchor setup and rope/personal gear still, as
we expect members to be relatively self-
sufficient once the ropes are up).
Carpooling location and time will be finalized
once participant list is determined. Bring cash
for gas.
The ice climbs range from WI2-WI4. If you
haven't climbed with either of us before,
please send us a brief introduction and
description of your climbing ability (ex. how
long have you been climbing, where/what have
you climbed)
Required Items to Bring:
Warm clothes: gloves, more than one pair. belay
jacket,
harness, beaners, belay device, ice tools,
boots, anchor set-up
crampons,
brain bucket, head lamp. If you want to lead,
bring your own screws. If you do not want to
lead but have some screws, please bring them as
well. Tobias and I will not have enough
ropes/gear on our own to set up multiple top-
ropes.
Recommended Items to Bring:
Hot drinks, snacks, camera for those moments!!
Fist aid kit if
have.

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.
