Guest Responsibility

Adventure sports include inherent risks to participants. Every effort is made to provide a safe and enjoyable experience, but the allure and excitement of adventure sports are due in part to the unpredictable nature of the activity. Various terrain, wildlife, weather, and other variables factor into this activity. Certain activities may be physically demanding. As a guest, you have certain responsibilities to uphold, and ultimately, it is up to you to decide what trip is best for you. If you have any questions or concerns, please inform our staff before participating in any trip. No outfitter can guarantee your safety, nor will you have an unintended accident. These accidents may result in a variety of injuries, including but not limited to abrasions, lacerations, and contusions. We are not responsible for personal injury and/or lost or damaged items. We require each participant to complete the “Release of Liability” form before their trip. Minors under the age of 18 are required to have a parent or legal guardian’s signature on their release form. It is important to the safety of all guests involved to be honest regarding conditions that may impact your ability to perform strenuous physical activities. Guides reserve the right to refuse service if we feel your safety or the safety of others will be compromised.
