Summer Trips
We conduct a full schedule of weekend trips to the mountains and organize at least two week-long climbing camps (usually based at an Alpine Club mountain hut) each summer. Our summer weekend activities include alpine climbing, rock climbing, and hiking.

Annual Photo Contest
Every November, the Edmonton Section of the Alpine Club organizes a photo contest for members. The entries must be from an Alpine region and must have been taken on trips within the prior two years. The slide and photo entries are shown and the results announced at our annual Wine and Cheese party at the end of November. Click here for photo contest details and to see the winning entries for the last few years.
