You get a week of frozen waterfalls, thigh-burning descents, and some of the best après culture on the planet. From the technical ice at Montmorency Falls to the dizzying views of the St. Lawrence while carving Le Massif, our adventurers pushed their limits by day and recovered in style by night. Join us on April 7th as we recap a journey of ice tools, luge runs, and legendary cottage lore.

    The ACC hut is on the far side of the lake, and most climbers get there by the club boat. Pickup times must be arranged with the custodian, and are usually between 5 pm and 1030 pm on Wednesday or Friday, although other times may be arranged upon request.

    HUT FEES: 

    Pre-paid via e-transfer. Fees include boat transport to the dock and cliff.
