Itinerary:

    This trip is intended for skiers who are confident skiing blue and black runs. We'll do a warm-up run together so the group can level themselves and decide who they'd like to ski with for the day.

  • We will be leaving the carpool at 7:00 a.m. to arrive at the Louise ticket window patio around 9:30 AM. Please arrive a few minutes early so we can arrange carpooling and depart on time.
  • The group will meet up for lunch around 11:30 a.m. at a location agreed upon by everyone - you are welcome to bring your own lunch or buy something on the hill.
  • We'll re-group in the Lodge of Ten Peaks 2'nd floor cafeteria at 4:30 p.m. before heading back to Calgary. Because this is a group event, those who cannot wait for all to ride the gondola together, meet at lunch and at 4:30 PM, are asked to please sign up for another event.

  • Skiing/Snowboarding activities have inherent risks involved. Rental packages now include helmets.
  • If you would like to drive please indicate in the notes section how many people including gear you can take in your car, what type of vehicle you will be driving, and whether or not you have snowtires. Please fill-up your gas tank ahead of time to limit stops.
