Name___________________________Trip ____________________________
I do hereby expressly waive, on my behalf and that of my heirs, any
and all claims, causes of action or demands of any kind against Boojum
Expeditions or their employees for any injury, death, illness or material
loss arising during my voluntary participation in the above described trip.
Initial_________
I accept the risks inherent in travel in a foreign country by air, land
and on horseback. I have been advised to obtain trip cancellation, and
emergency evacuation insurance. Initial_________
I understand that this trip takes place at elevations as high as 12,000
feet above sea level. I understand there are risks with travel at
such altitudes. I understand the above trip takes place in rugged
outdoor conditions (including camping) that contain inherent dangers due
to weather, terrain, flora and fauna and distance from hospital facilities.
I understand there will be rustic accommodations, unsanitary conditions
and unfamiliar foods. I understand I have the option to retire from
the trip if I feel unsafe. I further agree to bear the expense of
voluntarily retiring from the trip before it is concluded. Initial___________
I understand that riding horses is inherently dangerous and those
dangers include risk of injury and death. I understand those risks
are increased when riding unfamiliar horses and using unfamiliar tack.
I also understand the risks involved in riding horses cross country, on
rough roads and trails. I agree to accept full responsibility
for any injury suffered while riding on and working around the horses and
tack on this trip. I have been advised to wear a helmet while riding
and accept the risk of riding without a helmet if I so choose. Initial__________
I certify that I have spoken directly with Boojum Expeditions staff
about the nature of this trip and have had my questions regarding all aspects
of the trip including risks answered to my satisfaction. I understand
that Boojum Expeditions acts only as an agent in arranging transportation,
meals and accommodations and auxiliary services such as the use of horses
and camping gear. Initial____________
In the event of a dispute with Boojum Expeditions resulting from participation
in the above mentioned trip I agree to resolve that dispute through binding
arbitration under the rules of the American Bar Association. Initial_____________
