Itinerary:
Heavy Backpack- No worries, gear will be hauled-in by sled.

Skiers- also hauled-in by sled most of the way.

Remote area in the Purcels popular with hikers/mountaineers in summer. Accessed from Duncan Lake north of Kaslo BC.

Plan is to explore the area and ski the terrain.

Winter camping's a blast because you don't have to leave the incredible powder terrain at the end of the day. However, after a night or two it is nice to dry-out one's mitts and boot liners. For that reason, in advance of the trip we'll have a basecamp wall tent set up with a woodburning stove. Individual's tents and other gear still required. There will be a fee to cover costs for sled, fuel etc likely around $200 to be determined.

NOTES: THE DATES ARE AN ESTIMATE AND CAN CHANGE. I'M LOOKING FOR EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST. TRIP LENGTH 5 - 6 DAYS. WINTER CAMPING EXPERIENCE NOT REQUIRED BUT YOU'LL NEED APPROPRIATE GEAR. I CAN HELP WITH QUESTIONS.

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.
