Conditions and stability are looking like they will be reasonable on the weekend and snow
cover up near Bow Summit is getting better. I’m not 100% where we’ll end up; Crowfoot glades, Bow Summit… who knows. It will depend on where the wind hasn’t had too much affect and the snowpack
looks best.
I don’t expect great turns (but will gladly take them!), just a nice day out.
Participants must have previous avalanche training and/or experience and comfortable with companion rescue.

Cancellation/Partial Attendance:
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.
