Equipment - ACC Edmonton

Our club has gear that is available to ACC Edmonton Event Coordinators when leading an ACC Edmonton trip/course approved by our Safety Committee. Club gear must be reserved in advance of your trip.

To Reserve Club Gear for your Trip

Trip leaders can request club gear via email to our Safety Director (safety@accedmonton.ca).

Please include:
- Dates that the equipment is required. Include:
  - Gear pickup date
  - Dates of your trip
  - Days you will need to dry and clean the equipment
  - Length of rope required. Note that some ropes are shorter than 60m.
  - Describe the activity that the rope is being used for, so we can match suitable ropes for your trip.
  - Example: non-dry ropes for top rope cragging, dry ropes for ice climbs. This will help to extend the life of the gear, especially dry rope treatments.
Gear is reserved in order of: first-requested-first-reserved.
It is highly recommended to request gear immediately after your trip is approved.
In order to minimize exposure to disease transmission from shared surfaces, equipment will be allowed to rest a minimum of 72 hours before another booking.
Do not apply cleaner, sanitizer, or any chemical to ropes or equipment.

Picking up Club Gear

All club gear is picked-up from Track ‘N Trail (TNT) during their hours of operation. Please follow all guidance to comply with public health measures. Where possible, go during off-peak hours to pick-up gear.

TNT staff will release gear only after you show them:

A copy of the email from our Safety Directory that confirmed your reservation.
Your active ACC Edmonton membership card.

The specific kit booked will be the kit issued by TNT staff, as identified by its ID# tag.
Please inspect all kits before leaving the store, to ensure all items in the kit are included.
Batteries for equipment to be provided by the trip leader or participants. Please remove them when returning the gear.

Returning Club Gear

All gear must be returned to Track ‘N Trail, during their hours of operation, in the condition that you picked them up:
- Dry
- Clean
- In good repair
- All batteries removed from any devices
Return each kit with its ID# tag attached.
Please replace these if they are lost or damaged, as they are used to identify and book equipment.
If the equipment is damaged or lost, please report it to the Safety Director immediately, to prevent further booking until it is replaced or repaired.
