Total Escape Agreement

This document is basically for the safety of your personal well-being and security of the company, Total Escape.

You, as a participant in a Total Escape event, are solely responsible for your own actions. This includes, but is not limited to, hiking on cliff edges, exploring fragile mud caves, and driving or riding a vehicle in "off road" conditions. You are responsible for your own automobile insurance coverage for you and all your passengers. If you are sharing a ride with a new person, please make sure you understand the liabilities within the vehicle.

I fully understand that there are risks and dangers inherent in participating in outdoor recreational sports/activities, hereinafter "Activities". I also understand that in order to be allowed to participate in Activities, I must give up my rights to hold Total Escape, it's employees liable for any injury or damage which I may suffer while participating in Activities.

In no way is Total Escape to be held responsible for injuries or damage (personal or property) that occur during these planned outings & Activities. Accidents do occur in the wilderness and we will do our best to prevent such problems, but you must be aware of the uncertainty in any recreational outdoor situation. Take the advice of the experienced guide in unfamiliar surroundings. Wilderness terrain can be ever-changing and complex, so complete awareness is always advised. A map & general understanding of the landscape is always recommended if you are to venture away from the group. I have read Camp Rules & Ettiquette section.

Keep communication lines open at all times. Hand-held CB radios or two-way radios will be used at all possible situations.
If the group gets separated, do not hesitate to leave a note on a fellow campers vehicle or back at camp. Meet back at trail head or camp, if no other options were discussed.

I understand and agree that this Waiver/Release/Agreement will have the effect of releasing, discharging, waiving and forever relinquishing any and all actions or causes of action that I may have had, whether past, present or future, whether known or unknown, and whether anticipated or unanticipated by me, arising out of my participation in Trips and Activities.This Waiver/Release applies to personal injury, property damage, or wrongful death which I may suffer, even if caused by the acts or omissions of others.
