This will be a 2-day backcountry ski leadership course with Teresa
Yau (Ski Guide, Apprentice Alpine Guide) focusing on
leadership/avy/backcountry skills & skills review for those who are
already leading ski trips for a section. Exact foci will be
determined by participant survey and conditions.
If space permits, the course may be opened up
to aspiring leaders.
Locations will be decided
closer to the date and may include K-Country and Banff/Kootenay/Yoho
NPs. Carpools may be arranged, but participants will be responsible for
transport (and provincial/national parks passes). Accommodation is not
included.

4 people.

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.
