Business meeting - with the AGM and election of executive officers, followed by a short break.
This evening will feature two presentations:
First, Mountain guide Ferdl Taxbock will show a short DVD, "Testing your avi beacon." He will then demonstrate the PIEPS DSP transceiver, which has three antennas. The advantage of having three antennas is that only one maximum reading is given during the fine search.
Ferdl will also demonstrate the i-Probe, the newest in avalanche probes.
The transceiver demonstration will be followed by the main presentation of the evening by ACC Gazette editor Lynn Martel, Canmore-based author of 'Expeditions to the Edge - Stories of Worldwide Adventure.'
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.
Trip Feedback If you have any feedback, positive or negative, concerning this trip or any other, we want to hear from you! You can send any feedback you may have to the Section Chair.
