SUMMARY:David Thompson Climbing & Hiking/Scrambling trip
DESCRIPTION:Kick off your 2025 climbing season with us! We’re heading to the David Thompson Corridor\, near Nordegg\, AB\, from 10 to 14 June. We’ll plan to spend two days climbing the fantastic crags in the area\, and a third stretching our legs on one of the many hiking/scrambling routes in the area\, weather permitting. No outdoor climbing experience is necessary\, and all climbers  14+ (under 18 will need to be accompanied by a parent/guardian) with a sense of adventure and love of the outdoors are welcome. Applications for this trip are due by 31 January 2026. \nCost\nThe trip cost is $50 per participant. An active ACC Great Plains membership is required. Trip fees are due by 31 March 2026\, and cancelation refunds will only be considered after 31 March if your spot can be filled by another participant. \nGear\nParticipants are responsible for their own gear. Gear requirements include climbing shoes\, a harness\, a carabiner\, a belay device\, a helmet (mandatory)\, a hiking backpack\, and sturdy hiking boots appropriate for hiking and light scrambling. The club has a limited number of harnesses and helmets available at no cost to participants on a first-come first-served basis. Please indicate on your trip application if you wish to borrow club gear. A recommended packing list will be provided to confirmed trip participants. \nMeals\nParticipants are responsible for all their own meals\, including bagged lunches on climbing days. Depending on which campground is selected\, participants might need to bring their water for the trip. \nTravel and Accommodation\nThe group will be tenting together in the area (campground TBD)\, and participants will be responsible for their own camping fees. Participants are also responsible for their own transportation to and from Nordegg\, but carpooling options may be available (if you wish to carpool\, please notify the trip organizer). \nTrip Application\nTo apply to join the trip\, email Jennifer (j_l_arends@yahoo.ca) with the following information: \n1. Full name\n2. ACC membership number\n3. What (if any) club gear you need to borrow\n4. Your level of climbing experience\n5. Whether you need your own campsite or whether you’ll be sharing a site/tent with another participant\n6. An emergency contact name and number (not someone on the trip)  \nEvery attempt will be made to accommodate as many participants as possible\, but there are a limited number of spots available. This is not a first-come first-served trip: all trip participants will be vetted and notified shortly after the 31 January application deadline.
