Itinerary:

Skiing in the Wheeler Hut area.  Moderate paced trip - AST2 preferred but see below - email me if any questions.


This is a BITS friendly trip, but advanced riding skills are still required.  Most of the area has at least some tree skiing, sometimes tight, luge track riding, and terrain assessment.  Tree riding skills are a must.  If you are comfortable on black diamond runs in all conditions and hitting the glades are the resort you should be okay.  If you aren't sure, send me an email and we can discuss.

Required Items to Bring:

Avy gear

BC ski or splitboard gear

food/liquid for the day

Warm clothes



Cancellation/Partial Attendance:

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.
