If you're looking for the premier hikes and classic scrambles in the Canadian Rockies, you've come to the right place. In winter, we'll snowshoe and ski them. Want more? We do anything outside. Come join us!

We are a non-profit Calgary-based Society dedicated to recreational pursuits, including hiking, scrambling, rock climbing, camping, running, walking, backpacking, cycling, rollerblading, canoeing, kayaking, caving, mountaineering, snowshoeing, skiing (cross-country, downhill and backcountry), snowboarding, photography, and adventure travel. We are currently developing trips for those who love the outdoors, and even some indoor activities. We also want to help members develop recreational skills such as wilderness first aid, avalanche safety, and outdoor adventure skills. We want you to have a safe but fun time out there. We want members to share their skills with others so that we can all enjoy everything outdoor recreation can offer.
