Itinerary:
Join the ACC Rocky Mountain Section for an evening with Nicki Rehn and Claire Perks as they share stories and photos from their recent trip into the Bhutanese Himalaya to compete at the world's highest ultramarathon. Invited by the King of Bhutan to run "The Snowman Race", a 5-day 200 km journey along an ancient trade route, across seven high passes, and through some of the worlds most remote villages. It was a race with a purpose: to bring awareness to the impacts of climate change on this tiny but important region of the world. Find out what they learned about the beautiful people who live with the constant threat of melting glaciers, and what it was like to race above 18,000 feet and meet a king. This is FREE event! You do not need to register. FB Event: https://fb.me/e/59wa17yhN
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 Rocky Mountain Section of the ACC is a not for profit club and we only charge attendees what it costs us to provide courses or trips.
