My assumption is you have previous crevasse rescue experience.
This is a review of skills you would have already been taught by a professional. We will discuss techniques and practice crevasse rescue At the U of C climbing wall. We will discuss but obviously not be able to build snow and ice anchors. If you are planning on doing some glacier travel this winter or want to keep the summer skills current, this will allow us to share ideas and practice. We will also review roping up and setting up for glacier travel.

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.
