When we gather, and before we head out, you will be asked to sign the following 'Agreement of Understanding':
Agreement of Understanding:
I understand that I am wholly responsible for my own health & well-being during the duration of my participation in the Women’s Backcountry Paddling from Sep 27 – Oct 1, 2021, organized and hosted by Shelley Hannah. I agree that I have some experience in wilderness tripping and am thus aware of the risks involved as well as the necessary equipment needed to keep myself safe, and I willingly assume this responsibility.
I understand that Shelley will provide basic instruction on how to be and travel safely in a wilderness context, and will provide programming intended to support a rich group experience, and that my expectation of her responsibility ends there. I further understand that Shelley will not be carrying any liability insurance coverage for my participation on this expedition should anything unexpected arise and result in injury or illness to me while on the trip.
I understand that, while on trip, Shelley will be providing some leadership, organization and some programming content during this 5 day trip, and it is for this that I am paying her.
