2025 Gazette
Section Stories as Told by ACC Members Coast to Coast
This issue of the ACC Gazette is the second for the magazine in the current format, featuring contributed stories from our sections across the country, and we’re excited to be able to publish another amazing collection.
2025 is the UN International Year of Glaciers’ Preservation and we asked our sections to, if possible, contribute stories that were related in some way to glaciers. As a result, this issue looks pretty white; most of the stories take place in winter and in half of them glaciers are central to the narrative.
We wanted this issue to celebrate and affirm their importance to us and as Mary Sanseverino says in repeat Photography at Campbell Icefield (Vancouver Island, page 32), we are in a unique position to bring to the world the stories that these glaciers tell.
As you would expect; rocks, ice, snow, summits, trails high and low, and a little bit of travel to cool, mysterious places also feature in our club’s activities and stories.
The ACC is a national club, but it’s at the local sections where the magic happens. We’ve tried to capture a little bit of that magic, told by our section members in their own words. The stories individually provide a glimpse of local flavour, and collectively give a view of a diverse and exciting national club. We hope you enjoy this issue.
