Itinerary: |
Let's go for a day of rock climbing in the
Ghost. I will be taking my 4X4 in and can take
3 other people. Others wishing to participate
must also have a 4X4 and/or high clearance
vehicle for the trip in. The Ghost is a remote
area with no facilities, so please be prepared
for the adventure. I will be looking for a mix
of people who can lead and those wanting to top
rope, but you must be able to provide a safe
belay. There is a creek crossing, so you will
need wet runners or similar shoes. This event
will be weather and smoke dependant and could
be cancelled on short notice if either are
unfavourable.
|
Required Items to Bring: |
helmet, harness, rock shoes, biners, rope and
draws if leading, food, water
|
|
Recommended Items to Bring: |
sunscreen, bug spray, hiking poles, rain jacket,
small first aid kit
|
|
How to Get There: |
Event Directions: |
|
Park at Marker 39, cross the creek, and follow the
main path up to STD.

|
Notes: |
This will be a longer day, due to the travel
time
into and out of the Ghost. Please advise in
the comments section if you
have a 4X4 or high clearance vehicle, and if
you
have ropes/draws/anchor you would like to
bring.

Cancellation/Partial Attendance: Please review our participant responsibility guidelines!
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.
