Canadian Hut Upgrade
New!
AAC members now enjoy exactly the same access to the Canadian hut system as the Canadians do!
AAC members now have the option to purchase the Canadian Hut Upgrade for only $24USD. This upgrade gets you the same discounts enjoyed by Alpine Club of Canada members at their Canmore Clubhouse (including the self-contained Boswell Cabin) and at their national back country huts. The Canadian hut system consists of over 20 of the most climbing and backcountry skiing friendly locations in North America.
These backcountry huts range from remote bivi shelters at the base of distant mountains to log cabins with casual approaches in the Rocky and Selkirk Mountains of Alberta and British Columbia. All of these facilities offer rustic hospitality in Canada's most popular mountain environments. Find solace in a storm, respite after a long day's hike, or simply a quiet mountain refuge for a few days of solitude. Whatever your reason for visiting an Alpine Club of Canada hut, we're sure that you'll enjoy your stay.
For a complete listing of the Alpine Club of Canada huts, please visit this link: www.alpineclubofcanada.ca/facility/info.html
The facilities for which the upgrade will get you a discount are the Canmore Clubhouse (and Boswell Cabin) and those shown in the "Back Country Huts" area on that webpage (i.e. the discount does not apply to the "Canadian Alpine Centre" in Lake Louise and the "Section Huts").
