Trail Runner Responsibility

Any person who participates in a trail run with the Kitsap Mountaineers is expected to assume and fulfill the following responsibilities.

Follow COVID-19 Protocol 

Required equipment: 10 essentials, adequate clothing, and adequate footwear.

The trail runner should:

  • Be adequately prepared for the trail run. This includes having the above-required equipment that is appropriate for the weather and the location.
  • Be in a physical condition adequate for the trail run.
  • Be a responsible group member and abide by the decisions of the leader or consensus of the group.
  • Follow correct procedures for trip registration, canceling, and wait-listing.
  • Have a signed waiver before proceeding on a trail run.

As a courtesy to those new to The Mountaineers we offer the following:

  • Trip leaders know the route and oversee the group. Leaders, in conjunction with a MOFA leader when present, are also responsible for managing the smooth exit of the group in the unlikely event of an emergency.
  • Runners are expected to behave in a safe and responsible manner and be adequately prepared for the trip. Those who are not adequately equipped for the trip may, at the leader's discretion, be sent home for the sake of safety. So please, don't forget your 10 essentials.
  • Each guest runner must have a signed waiver on file. Waivers may be filed electronically during online registration or filed by email to the trail run leader before the trip.

FYI and per COVID-19 guidelines
