Banff

*** Due to a recent fire this trip is probably moving to 2026. A Tahoe Rim Trail backpack will replace this***

We are planning a 2025 trip up to Banff Canada. The dates are not locked down as we have the Vancouver Island West Coast Trail trip (also with dates not yet locked down). The dates will get sorted out in the chat.

The exact plan is also not locked down but will probably involve spending a few days in a couple of locations, either day hiking or backpacking. Of course you need a passport to enter into Canada.

We organize on Facebook/Facebook messenger, so you do not need to use Facebook, but you must be able to use Messenger. When you join a chat for an event, you will understand why.

Rules and expectations you should know:

• Liability Waiver - Before you RSVP to an event you must have signed our liability waiver at least once
• What are we here for?
• Events Refund Policy
• RSVP Courtesy - by attending a day hike you certify you agree with it
• Backpacking Trek Expectations - by attending a backpack you certify you agree with them
• Day Hike Expectations - by attending you certify you agree with them
• Most events are organized via Facebook Messenger. We don't care if you use Facebook but for most trips (including all overnight trips) you need Messenger to participate. If there is a Messenger chat for a trip, being added to the Messenger chat is the actual go list.
• Many of our trips use a waitlist. Please add yourself to it. Here are the best way to get to the go list!

Please sign the liability waiver above, if you haven’t already.
(It must be signed before you RSVP. You will not have the opportunity to sign at a trail head and we do not have paper copies. If you signed the liability waiver for a past event with this group, you don’t need to sign it again. Not participating with the waiver is grounds to be removed from the group.)
