| Itinerary: |
|
Another in the "infamous" ski summit season
series. We would like to target a summit but of
course, conditions may prohibit that, in which
case we will try to find a tour. The
destination will depend on weather and
avalanche conditions.
At the moment, we are considering peaks such as:
* Bow Peak (from Crowfoot pass, rte 55 in the COASB book);
* Crowfoot Mountain (glacier travel involved);
* Mt Andromache (route TBD).
Destination will be announced closer to event date, dependent
on weather and avalanche conditions, and group
experience.
|
| Required Items to Bring: |
|
Transceiver (digital 2+ antennae), snow shovel,
probe, warm clothing, backcountry ski gear,
sunglasses/ski goggles and headlamp, ice axe,
boot crampons, ski crampons have proved
important in the
past!
Food/drink for the day. Sun screen.
|
|
| Recommended Items to Bring: |
|
Food/drink, extra clothing and any required
personal items. If we are going to a summit, an
ice axe, helmet, and boot crampons might be
needed.
Ski crampons may be an asset.

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.
