HOME  >>  RENDEZVOUS
CONNECT WITH OTHER CANYONEERS
The ACA provides a variety of ways to meet other canyoneers from across the country and from around the world, including Canyon Rendezvous, informal MeetUps, local chapters and social groups:

CANYON RENDEZVOUS
Our Canyon Rendezvous offer a great opportunity to discover new canyons, make new friends; to share ideas and information; and to learn new skills and techniques from other canyoneers. The original intent of our Canyon Rendezvous was to provide our canyoneering students with opportunities to practice their skills and techniques. These fun gatherings have become a favorite benefit for ACA members.

During Canyon Rendezvous volunteers organize canyoneering trips each day, intended for canyoneers of various skill levels. Other rendezvous activities typically include: skills workshops, gear demos, slide and film presentations, gear swaps, door prizes and raffles.

Registration and more information can be found at Ossola 2010 Many Italian canyoneers inform me they are excited to have foreign guests.
