Hike the Swiss Alps of Zermatt and Saas-Fee, 7/26/2020 - 8/8/2020 TRIP AGREEMENT

Please complete this trip agreement. By choosing "Yes" to the items below I certify that I have read, understood and agreed to the following information and trip requirements.

= required field

Name

Preparedness I understand that this trip requires excellent aerobic conditioning, balance, and the skills and gear to pack appropriately and carry a daypack with confidence for 6-10 miles per day for multiple days on sometimes very rugged terrain, including steep scree or boulder-field ascents/descents and moderate exposure. I certify that I will be prepared with the experience, skills, conditioning, and gear to meet the requirements of the trip.

Route I understand that the route will involve some short, moderately exposed sections with ascents/descents or narrow traverses aided with fixed cables.

Accommodations I understand that this trip will require one night’s sharing of bunk rooms with other people who may be outside our party, including people of the opposite gender.

Food I understand that the variety of food available and the ability to meet special dietary preferences may be limited.

Travel Documents I understand that I will be required to hold up-to-date travel documents and international medical insurance and emergency evacuation insurance for the trip, at my own expense. The evacuation insurance should be sufficient to get me back to the hospital of my choice in the United States.

Teamwork I understand that this is a group trip. Participants share the same daily itinerary, and will look out for and support each other on the trail. Pace, daily start and end times, route, and side trips will be driven by the needs of the group and conditions on the ground.

Leadership I understand that safety and well-being of participants comes first and the itinerary and route may change without prior notice based on conditions. While participant input will be valued, the Mountaineers trip leader will be the ultimate decision maker.

Responsibility I understand that the Mountaineers trip leader is not a guide and that I am responsible for knowing the route and where I am along the way at all times.

Fitness and Medical Conditions I commit to providing a doctor’s certification of medical fitness if requested, and to disclose to the leader and outfitter in advance of the trip about any recent injuries, surgeries, allergies, medications or medical conditions that could impact me on the trip.

Behavior I commit to behave during the trip in a careful and safe manner, to communicate to the leader promptly about any illness or injury, and to put my health and safety and that of my fellow group members first even if this means having to turn around or exit the trip early.

Cancellation Fees I understand that there is a minimum $100 fee if I cancel, plus any non-refundable expenses incurred up to that point.
