Alpine review is not first come first on the
weekend. The nature of alpine climbing and the
limited number of spots means that each
participant will have to be vetted by the
individual trip leader. There will be trips for
novice, intermediate, and advanced alpine
climbers! Note that your position on the
waitlist does not impact chances of getting on
a trip. So if you see a trip you like, sign up!
Members who have participated in past ACC
events will be given priority over people who
are not yet active with the club.
It doesn't matter if you are only signed up for
one trip, the tendency seems to be that leaders
post trips for the Saturday and then discuss
options for the Sunday during their Saturday
trip or over dinner at the hostel.
You won't be added on to the Alpine Review
event until you have signed up for, been
accepted onto a trip and paid the event fee.
Please note you need to be signed up on the
wait list for the whole weekend and also on the
individual trips you want to attend.
Costs are $100 for participants, and $80 for
leaders. This covers accommodation at Rampart
Creek and a communal dinner on the Saturday
night, including a small amount of alcoholic
beverages. (Participants are subsidizing trip
leaders costs for dinner & drinks).
Once you are accepted on a trip, payment should
be emailed to the treasurer at
treasurer@acccalgary.ca. You must include your
name, the trip (Alpine Review), your address,
and most importantly, the e-transfer password!
Send proof of payment to the individual trip
coordinator and also to Clare Ormerod
(clareormerod@hotmail.co.uk)and Jackie Smale
(jacquelyn.smale@gmail.com), then you will be
transferred onto the Review and onto the
individual trip.
Required Items to Bring:
Stoke, sense of humour, and desire for alpine
adventures!
Note that Alpine Review payments will be non-
refundable, but if a person has to cancel and
they are able to find a replacement suitable to
the trip leader, they can sell/give over their
spot.
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.
