Itinerary:
The ski summit season is back! 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.

Possible objectives for this trip may include: Mt Bourgeau, Mt Whymper, Mt Bell via Bell couloir, Vermillion Peak & Storm Mtn among others.

As a representative example, past outing included Little Temple, Bow Peak, Purple Pk and Lipalian Mtn, and Mt Haffner, Mt Field, Panorama Ridge, Smutwood.

Destination will be dependent on weather, avalanche conditions and group experience.

If we have never skied together before, please send a brief summary of your training and experience to both trip leaders. All participants will be strongly encouraged / expected to participate in group decisions such as terrain reading, routefinding and snowpack analysis.
Required Items to Bring:
Transceiver, shovel, probe, headlamp, mountaineering axe, boot crampons.

Recommended Items to Bring:
Food/drink, warm clothing, sunscreen, helmet. 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.
