| Itinerary: |
|
The tentative plan is to leave Calgary early Saturday morning and head up to the Columbia Icefield via. the Athabasca Glacier and set-up camp Sat. evening next to the trench.
Sunday, if weather conditions permit, we'd start with a typical alpine start and track up Columbia.
Discussions over the course of the trip will help decide what other peaks we should consider bag'n Monday-Tuesday.
Wednesday, we exit via the Sask. Glacier.

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.
