Weather Policy
All of our outdoor programs are subject to the weather and environmental conditions that exist on the dates you have chosen. In signing up for a trip, you are agreeing to attempt the program even if conditions are not “ideal.”
- Before the trip begins -- if conditions are deemed unsafe by the guide, we reserve the right to change the venue, itinerary, or activity. If we decide that conditions are unsuitable for any alternative activities, we will work with you to reschedule or refund.
- After your trip begins -- if weather or conditions make the original plan not feasible, you are not entitled to a refund.
