With bouldering at Frank Slide, new multipitch and sport routes, as well as some good mountain biking , we are planning on going down to Crowsnest Pass to check it all out.
Rough itinerary:
- Paul and I will go on Thursday morning to grab camp spots at Chinook lake for the group.
- Everyone else will come down and meet us. I suggest four possible times: Thursday morning (ride with us), Thursday evening (@ campground), Friday morning (@ Frankslide), Friday evening (@ campground).
- Boulder/climb/mountain bike for the rest of the days. We can spontaneously decide/split up depending on weather and what people want to do.
Please send me a quick note on, activities you are interested in, your experience (beginners are fine for bouldering, but basic knowledge is required for the other activities) and when you would want to go down. I will try to organize carpools.
Cost: Fee for campground will be split evenly.

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.
