Adventure League is set in the world of Forgotten Realms. There is often room at games and you are welcome to contact the coordinator (Josiah) to be invited to future games. No experience is necessary (you're welcome to bring a existing Adventure League character from previous play as long as you have a full Adventure Log to share).

Banff Hut to Hut Glacier Backpacking and Hiking

Banff Hut to Hut Glacier Backpacking and Hiking

Sun, Aug 16, 2:00 PM
From Explorer Chicks of San Francisco
4.8

Join us on a Banff Canada Hiking + Hut-to-Hut Backpacking Adventure for women only! During your 6-day trip, backpack hut-to-hut in the remote backcountry of Banff National Park. Enjoy day hikes through the towering mountains and glacier fed lakes of the Canadian Rockies. This is not the maple syrup harvest your aunt went to that one time. This is Wild Canada, sister! **GUIDED HIKING IN BANFF, CANADA NATIONAL PARKS** First, spend three days hiking in and exploring nearby national and provincial parks. The town of Banff is surrounded on all sides by them, boasting some of the most beautiful landscapes that Canada offers. Experience the iconic hiking trails in the surrounding parks, the atmosphere of the quaint mountain town, and the quiet backcountry bliss amongst flanneled femmes. Day-hike to turquoise glacier fed lakes, past waterfalls, along pointed mountain ridge lines, and through luscious green valleys. Snap an iconic photo by Moraine Lake to add to your Instagram feed. You’ll feel as if you’re in a fairy tale admiring the chateau from Lake Louise. Also enjoy exploring lesser known trails as our local guides share their favorites hikes. You could be hiking to glacier fed lakes in Banff National Park, past stunning waterfalls in Yoho National Park, up and over a mountain pass in Kananaskis Country and more. **EXPLORING DOWNTOWN BANFF** Each evening, we’ll return to our downtown Banff hotel, roll on some deodorant, and head out on the town to dine as a group. In your free time, soak your beautiful bones in one of the outdoor hot tubs or curl up cat-like beside the outdoor fireplace. Buzzed storytelling is encouraged. **CANADIAN ROCKIES HUT-TO-HUT GUIDED BACKPACKING AND GLACIER CROSSING** On the final three days of your adventure, we leave behind the hustle and noise of Banff and its tourists. Load up a 70L backpack with glacier crossing gear and all of the essentials for a hut-to-hut trek across the Wapta Icefields of the Canadian Rockies. The Icefields are rolling, gentle glaciers that you will trek up and over during the course of three days. Experience first hand a rapidly disappearing mountain landscape while immersing yourself in a truly remote and unique, backcountry environment. Your destination each evening is rustic, remote alpine huts high up in mountains. There aren’t many backcountry treks that you can get the alpine trifecta—glaciers, mountains, and cozy alpine huts! **ALL MAJOR BACKPACKING AND GLACIER CROSSING GEAR PROVIDED** * 70L backpack * sleeping bag * mountaineering boots * climbing harness * climbing helmet * crampons * ice axe * ropes **See the website for full itinerary, details and to book.** [https://explorerchick.com/adventures/banff-hut-to-hut-hiking-adventure/](https://explorerchick.com/adventures/banff-hut-to-hut-hiking-adventure/) **Say Hello 👋** **💻** Website: [https://explorerchick.com/](https://explorerchick.com/) 📧 Email: [hello@explorerchick.com](http://hello@explorerchick.com/) 📸 Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/explorerchickadventureco/](https://www.instagram.com/explorerchickadventureco/) ❤️ Facebook: [https://www.facebook.com/ExplorerChickAdventureCo/](https://www.facebook.com/ExplorerChickAdventureCo/) 👯‍♀️ Facebook Group: [https://www.facebook.com/groups/weareexplorerchick](https://www.facebook.com/groups/weareexplorerchick) 🎥 TikTok: [https://www.tiktok.com/@explorerchick](https://www.tiktok.com/@explorerchick)

Frequently asked questions

Meetup connects people through local groups and events based on shared interests. It's perfect for discovering activities and meeting new people in your area or online.

Use Meetup to search for adventure-related groups in San Francisco. Enter relevant interests such as hiking or outdoor activities and browse available groups nearby.

Absolutely! Meetup allows you to join as many groups as you like. It's a great way to connect with different communities and explore a variety of activities.

While many groups may host regular events each weekend, availability depends on the specific group and organizer. Check the group calendar to stay updated.

Once you find an event that interests you, click RSVP on the Meetup event page. This lets the organizer know you're attending and helps you stay informed about details.

Meetup offers a range of free events, though some organizers may charge a fee for their events. Always check event details for any potential costs.

Meetup focuses on group activities, making it ideal for community building rather than one-on-one interactions. You'll meet people in shared, social settings.

While many events are led by knowledgeable hosts, Meetup itself does not supervise events. Details vary, so participant safety is always a personal responsibility.

It's wise to check event descriptions for gear requirements. Basic outdoor clothing and footwear are essential; some hikes may need specific equipment.

You can suggest events through group forums or discussions. If you're a group member, consider conveying ideas and see if organizers are interested.

Group availability varies by location and interest, so while San Francisco likely has kayaking groups, it's best to search using specific keywords through Meetup.

Meetup does not organize events but connects members with group-hosted activities. Event structure and organization depend on each unique host.

Many adventure groups in San Francisco include camping as part of their activities. Check specific group event calendars for upcoming camping trips.

While Meetup provides a platform for real connections, group quality and event authenticity depend on member feedback and self-policing communities.

Meetup is a great place for beginners! Look for groups that welcome all skill levels or specifically cater to newcomers to the hiking community.
