| Itinerary: |
This trip is part of the BITS (Backcountry Introduction to Skiing) program. BITS participants who are signed up for the Lake Louise weekend will get first priority, followed by other BITS participants.
It will be a slow-moderate to moderate pace with the destination TBD based on weather and avalanche conditions. Likely in the Lake Louise or Icefields Parkway area.
Those BITS participants that registered for the overnight stay as a group at the Lake Louise hostel will head to Lake Louise at end of day. Others will head back to Calgary or wherever. Carpool arrangements will be made once participants are confirmed.
Participants are encouraged to contact the leader if there are questions or suggestions for things to be reviewed/practiced/discussed during the day.
|
| Required Items to Bring: |
|
The usual ski touring or split-boarding gear, including avalanche beacon, probe and shovel. Food, water/tea/etc, plenty of layers.

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.
