Note the Hut has not yet been booked but is available. Once I confirm interest and financial commitment from participants, it will be secured. If unavailable, alternate options will be offered or money refunded.
Drive down to the Peyto lake parking lot for 8am Saturday morning and gear up. Ski down to Peyto lake, across the lake, up the moraine and onto the glacier to reach Peyto hut. Unpack and go bag a peak and ski some turns. Sunday up early bag another peak on the Wapta and ski to Bow hut for lunch. Ski out to Bow lake and vehicles.

*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.
