1. ASSUMPTION OF RISK
I am fully aware of the risks inherent in participating in events with other people, which may lead to the spread of illness, such as COVID-19, Influenza, the Norovirus, and more. I understand that each individual, including myself, is responsible for following the guidelines and all safety mandates (federal, state, and local) and thereby caring for one’s self and for other participants. I am also fully aware of the risks and hazards inherent in participating in recreational activities with Great Old Broads for Wilderness. Such risks and hazards include, but are not limited to, rough terrain, narrow trails, high altitude, hot and cold weather, wild animals and plants, illness, or injury in areas remote from medical facilities, the forces of nature and acts of God, rough water, sharp or dull tools, rolling rocks and travel by boat, vehicle, or animal conveyances. I further understand there is the possibility of death or serious physical or mental trauma or injury (e.g., paralysis) associated with outdoor recreational activities. I hereby freely accept the risk involved in participating in this event including any risks caused by the negligence of Great Old Broads, its employees, volunteer staff, directors, officers, and other Event participants.
