Outdoor Information and Forms
Thank you for choosing The Colorado Climbing Company to serve your outdoor climbing needs. Below is some information
that will help make your trip more enjoyable. Also attached are a medical form and a liability waiver. Please return these for
each participant before your trip.
Clothing and Gear:
Participants need clothing appropriate to the weather they may see in the season and terrain they are in. Participants will
also be hiking to get to the climbing locations so everything has to be carried. Participants may not be allowed to participate
if they fail to wear appropriate clothing and footwear for the activity. All climbing gear is provided at no additional charge.
Participants are welcome to use your own gear if they have it. Guides will inspect participant gear prior to use. We would be
happy to teach you how to use any gear you might have.
This gear list is not all inclusive but is suggested as a bare minimum:
● Backpack for carrying personal items.
● 2 liters (or more) of water. Water may be sparse and altitude and summer heat can make you thirsty so bring plenty
of water.
● Lunch and snacks.
● Appropriate clothing for weather and terrain:
o Sunscreen, sunglasses, hat.
o Waterproof clothing.
o Appropriate warm clothing for cold weather climbing (hat, gloves, layers of clothing, no cotton)
o Appropriate footwear (no open toed shoes)
● Camera (suggested)
Weather Policy
● We will notify you up till 10 PM MST the night before or the morning of the trip if the weather is cause for
cancellation.
● If your trip is cancelled due to weather you may reschedule to a later date or receive a refund.
● Please be aware that storms occur unexpectedly in the mountains and your guide will have the final decision on
whether to cancel the trip.
Cancellation Policy
● If for some reason you need to cancel your course or trip outside of 30 days you will receive a full refund less a $50
service charge. If you must cancel within 30 days of the course or trip a refund of 50% will be given. All balances are
due before the start of any course or trip and no refunds will be given once the course or trip commences.
FAQ

not participants.
● Can I request a particular person to be our guide? Yes, just ask us so we can make sure they’re available.

Participant Agreement, Release, and Assumption of Risk
This Agreement covers participation in climbing activities offered by Climbing International, LLC, a corporation doing business
as The Colorado Climbing Company. Climbing International, LLC, and The Colorado Climbing Company are referred to in this
document as “The Company”. This agreement affects the legal rights of participants and their families, and should be read
carefully. It must be signed by ALL participants and by a parent or guardian of all minor participants (those under 18 years of
age). The parent or guardian (referred to in this document as “Parent”) signs and agrees for him or herself and on behalf of
the minor participant.
In consideration of being allowed to participate in the climbing and other activities offered by The Company, I, the Participant,
and/or the Parent of a minor Participant, understand, acknowledge and agree as follows:
Activities
Activities offered by The Company include a variety of climbing adventures including rock, ice and snow climbing, rappelling
and mountaineering; hiking (including offtrail and over difficult terrain) orienteering, outdoor games, and team building
exercises. The terrain for climbing or rappelling may reach heights thousands of feet from the ground. Climbers may be
supported in the climb by means of a belay operated by a staff member or other person, including another participant, at or
near the base of the wall and at other points along the climbing route. Bouldering activities will not be belayed, spotted or
otherwise managed by The Company, although a climber may choose to be spotted by another participant. The activities
may take place in remote areas where access to definitive medical care may be far away or in urban settings as well.
These activities require moderate to heavy physical exertion and can be physically and emotionally demanding. Participant
may not participate in the activity if he or she has any medical (mental or physical) condition which might create risks to him
or herself or to other participants or staff. Participant, or parent, represents Participant has no such conditions and that
Participant, or Parent, if requested to do so, has completed The Company’s Medical Form, and has done so truthfully and to
the best of his or her knowledge.
Risks
The risks of the activities offered by The Company include, among others, the following:
1. All manner of injury resulting from falling from height; hitting other persons, climbing surfaces, other
projections, and the ground;
2. Rope abrasion, entanglement and other injuries resulting from activities on or near the climbing areas,
including, among others, climbing, belaying, rappelling, lowering on a rope, rescue systems, and other rope
uses and techniques;
3. Injuries resulting from falling climbers or dropped items, including, among others, ropes, climbing hardware,
and equipment; the hazards of walking on uneven terrain and slips and falls; being struck by rock fall, icefall or
other objects dislodged or thrown from above;
4. Cuts, abrasions and other trauma resulting from contact with other persons, the climbing surfaces, and other
structures;
5. Injuries resulting from the use and potential or actual failure of climbing ropes and equipment, slings,
harnesses, climbing hardware, belay devices, anchor points, and other gear and equipment related to the
activities. Carelessness of staff and other climbers, including while supervising or managing a belay.
6. Accidents involving other people; collision with fixed or movable objects, injuries or accidents involving contact
with other people or vehicles, the negligence of other operators of motor vehicles or myself.
7. The risks of exposure to wild animals or insect bites; exposure to temperature and weather extremes which
could cause hypothermia, hyperthermia (heat related illnesses), heat exhaustion, sunburn, dehydration; the
risk of altitude and cold including frostbite, acute mountain sickness, cerebral and pulmonary edema; travel in
remote areas with poor or no access to emergency and/or medical services.
8. The fear of heights, close personal contact with other persons, and other fears or phobias.
9. The forces of nature, both known and unknown, including cold or other uncomfortable weather, snow, sleet,
hail, lightning and rain, rock fall, weather changes and avalanche, the risks of falling off the rock, mountain or
1031 Mt. Werner Circle, C/S, CO 80905 | 7192096649 | info@coclimbing.com
into a crevasse, falling timber, and uneven terrain, cold and fast moving water, and other hazards of an outdoor
environment including lakes, stream and rivers.
The above list is not inclusive of all possible risks associated with the activities of The Company and does not limit the extent
or scope of the following assumption of risk, release and indemnity. The risks described, and others are inherent to the
program and its activities. They cannot be eliminated without destroying the basic nature of the activity and reducing its
appeal and value. Furthermore, The Company’s employees have difficult jobs to perform. They seek safety, but are not
infallible. They may be unaware of a participant's fitness or abilities, might misjudge the weather or other environmental
conditions, may give incomplete warnings or instructions, and the equipment being used might malfunction or be used
incorrectly. Participant acknowledges that he or she has read and understands the Safety Policies of The Company and
agrees to fully comply with those policies.
Release and Indemnity
If I am an adult Participant, or Parent of a minor participant (for myself and on behalf of the minor), I hereby agree to release
and discharge Climbing International, LLC (doing business as The Colorado Climbing Company and referred to herein as The
Company) its owners, directors, trustees, employees, officers, and contractors (referred to as “Released Parties”) from all
claims and liabilities in any way arising from or connected with my, or the minor participant’s, enrollment or participation in
the activities, including my, or the minor participant’s, presence on the premises of The Company. I understand that by
signing this document, I surrender my rights, and the rights of the minor for whom I sign below, to make a claim or file a
lawsuit against Climbing International, LLC, The Colorado Climbing Company, or any other Released Party for personal
injury, property damage, wrongful death or otherwise.
If I am an adult Participant or Parent of a minor participant (for myself and on behalf of the minor), I further agree to defend
and indemnify (that is, pay or reimburse damages and costs, including attorneys’ fees) The Company and other Released
Parties from any claim associated with my, or the minor participant’s, enrollment or participation in an activity of The
Company, whether brought by a coparticipant, member of my, or the minor participant’s, family, a rescuer or any other
person, for loss or damage either suffered by me, or the minor participant, or caused in whole or in part by my, or the minor
participant’s, conduct.
These agreements of release and indemnity include loss or damage caused or claimed to be caused in whole or in part by
the negligence, but not the intentional wrongs or the gross negligence, of The Company or another Released Party.
Assumption of Risks
I, Participant, adult or minor, understand the risks described above, and others, inherent or not, may result in loss or damage
to property, personal injuries and even death. I nevertheless expressly acknowledge and assume all such risks, inherent and
otherwise, whether or not described above, and voluntarily choose to participate in the activity, accepting responsibility for
such risks, and for injuries or other losses which may be encountered.
Other
This agreement will govern participation in the activities of The Company on the date on which it is signed and thereafter until
it is withdrawn by written notice to The Company. I hereby give my permission and consent to the taking of photographs,
videotapes, and other images of me or the minor participant and agree that such images may be published and otherwise
used by The Company for advertising, promotion, publicity, or any other purpose The Company deem appropriate, without
compensation to me or to the minor participant.
The terms of this agreement and any dispute between a Released Party and Participant or Parent will be governed by the
substantive laws of the State of Colorado (not including laws which might apply the laws of another jurisdiction); and any suit
or mediation of the dispute will take place solely in El Paso County, Colorado. I hereby give my permission and consent to
the taking of photographs, videotapes, and other images of me or the minor participant and agree that such images may be
published and otherwise used by The Company for advertising, promotion, publicity, or any other purpose The Company
deems appropriate, without compensation to me or to the minor participant.
