This posting is reserving spots on the calendar
for the Asulkan Hut.
The trip is 2 nights at Asulkan Cabin. The trip
leader may suggest departing the evening of the
day before and staying in Golden so that the group gets to the hut early in order to do
more skiing. The cost is $80 per person, not
including wilderness passes, which you must
purchase separately.
Asulkan is the premier hut for skiing in Rogers
Pass and this trip promises to be a fantastic
trip.
Please wait until after the coordinator has
responded to you with regards to your eligibility to pay for the trip.
Payment can be made via e-
transfer to the Treasurer at
treasurerClub@acccalgary.ca along with the
following information: Name, Full Address with
postal code, phone number, email, event title and
date, trip leader/coordinator and the password to
accept the payment. These details assist the
bookkeeper in sending out receipts for payments.
Once I have confirmation from the Treasurer that
you have paid your deposit, I will move you from
the waiting to the attendee list.
There are no refunds for cancellations by
participants unless the participant finds a
suitable replacement.
Required Items to Bring:
Overnight gear/food for hut, ski touring kit,
glacier travel kit.
How to Get There:
Event Directions:
Reservation for the hut is 10 people Friday Feb 22 to Sunday 24.
Carpool Departure Time:

Notes:
If you are interested please sign up and send an
email to the trip coordinator(s) with your
experience level, including your fitness level,
ski ability and avalanche/crevasse rescue
knowledge. The trip traverses serious glacier and
complex avalanche terrain and it is highly
recommended participants have AST 2, first aid and
crevasse rescue. Please be somewhat specific in
your response with regards to your ability: i.e.
“I have taken AST 1, get out 5 times per year,
typically ski 750m a day. For downhill ability, I
find diamonds relatively tough and like to take my
time. I just took crevasse rescue this year, but
haven’t touched a rope since” or “I’ve been to
this specific area 10x in the past two years. I
get out 50+ days a year, have taken AST 2 and
more, typically ski 2000m a day, love to charge
double diamonds at the ski hill, and can pull
someone out of a crevasse in under 30 minutes
solo.”
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.
