- Be with like-minded outdoors people who love the wilderness and care for the land
- Be with people experienced in the backcountry and gain from their knowledge
- Access to the club Gear Board, to buy/sell/swap equipment and discuss equipment

Have your prices gone up?
Yes we've changed our pricing model and raised the membership fee ($63 before Dec 1) and bus fare ($55). The reason is our costs are higher. But also we've focused in the last few years on keeping our prices artificially low during that after the pandemic even though this is not financially sustainable for the club.
But consider the prices at related clubs (last year's numbers so likely to go up for this year):
Trakkers Ski Club
Membership $85
Bus $35
Trail fees $30-45
High Park Ski Club
Membership $170
Bus/fees $50-80
OCEY
Membership $30
Bus/fees $68
So our prices are very reasonable. And think about what you get with all that!
Join as a member and that carries you to November 30, 2026!
