The Alpine Club of Canada
|
Our love of the mountains doesn't stop at the Canadian border. One glimpse of the mountains of Canada, be it the Coast Range, St. Elias Range, or Laurentian Mountains of Quebec, will make you a lover of the northern ranges. The keeper of this reverence is the Alpine Club of Canada and OR is a proud supporter of their efforts.
From www.alpineclubofcanada.ca:
The Alpine Club of Canada is Canada's national mountaineering organization. Based in Canmore, Alberta, the A.C.C. has been a focal point for Canadian mountaineers since 1906. With local club sections across Canada, membership in the Union Internationale des Associations d'Alpinisme (U.I.A.A.), year-round mountain adventures, and an extensive system of alpine and backcountry huts throughout the Canadian Rockies, the A.C.C. has grown from its early inception into a full-fledged mountaineering organization with a strong foundation of volunteer, professional and corporate support.
The Alpine Club of Canada has a strong cadre of volunteers as well as dedicated office staff. For local activities in your area contact the Section Representative of the section closest to where you reside. They all have weekend activities and many offer courses and camps.
