Itinerary: |
As part of the Ice review, this is an all skills level trip. It's about 35 min further up the parkway, just past the Columbia Ice Fields visitor centre. Approach is incredibly short and climb is easy / top rope friendly. A great place to try some mock leads or just work on technique.
|

|
|

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.
