| Itinerary: |
|
4:45 pm - Meet at the parking for Valley Ridge
Outdoor Rink, 170 Valley Meadow Close NW
5:00 pm - leave the meeting area promptly at 5:00pm
- we need all the daylight we have!
6:00 pm - arrive at the trail head
6:30 pm - climbing
Dusk -Pack up the ropes, have a "refreshment" in
the parking lot with everyone else, then head home
Night -Get back to town and dream about climbing
Note that if 4:45 is too early, you can meet us at
the crag. We will be bringing the cooler for the
après climbing review and social. If you want to
participate, please bring a contribution of your
favourite beverage for the cooler.
|
| Required Items to Bring: |
|
Helmet (strictly required - no helmet - no
climbing), harness, locking carabiner, belay
device, rock shoes.
|
|
| Recommended Items to Bring: |
|
Sport climbing gear, draws etc., your own rope (if
you don't mind other people top roping on it, we
will also be bringing club ropes and anchors),
water, snacks, camera. Also, don't forget to
bring a "refreshment", to put in the cooler for
the après-climb gathering in the parking lot.
A refreshment can be the adult version or
anything else that tastes good after an evening
of climbing. It's difficult for everyone to
get to a pub afterwards, so this is the best
alternative. Apparently one of the trip leaders
likes Oreos.

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.
