Itinerary:

Organizer: Kim

Activity Type:  Ice Climbing


Difficulty Rating: Beginner

Itinerary: Some easy top rope laps at Balfour a few minutes south of the saskatchewan river crossing. Realistically it's about a 20 min walk in. Pretty easy set up and enough space. Great for practicing and a nice chill day of cragging. Preachers point is likely still accessible for camping. All the details to be arranged by whatsapp. First come first serve. Feb 19/20 I'll open it up to ACC folks.

Please do use the waitlist. I'll be using emails sent from your registrations to determine FCFS across platforms. Contingent upon weather and the event on the 3rd going ahead.

Prerequisites / Courses Required: TR belay

Required items to bring: Ice gear, helmet, belay device, all the warm things.

Required Items to Bring:

See above




*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 Edmonton Section of the ACC is a not for profit club and we only charge attendees what it costs us to provide courses or trips.
