Visitor's Acknowledgment of Risk

I recognize that there is an element of risk in any adventure, sport, or activity associated with the outdoors. I am fully cognizant of the risks and dangers inherent in cross-country skiing. Knowing of the inherent risks, dangers, and rigors required of said activity, I certify that me and my family, including minor children, are fully capable of participating in the said activity. Therefore, I assume full responsibility for personal injury to myself and/or to members of my family, or for loss or damage to my personal property and expenses thereof as a result of my negligence or the negligence of my family participating in said activity except to the extent such damage or injury may be due to the negligence of the Southwest Nordic Center. I further understand that the Southwest Nordic Center reserves the right to refuse any person it judges to be incapable of meeting the rigors and requirements of participating in cross-country skiing.

I realize that Colorado Highway 17, the highway to the yurt trailheads, can be snow covered and icy and that it is highly recommended that I bring chains, snow tires, and/or a four wheel drive vehicle. I know that the weather at the yurts can be inclement and that the Southwest Nordic Center does not guarantee the weather in any way, shape, or form. I further understand that the Southwest Nordic Center does not guarantee the snow quantity or quality on the date of my yurt tour. I realize that the yurts are in the mountain backcountry. I know that routefinding in inclement weather can be very difficult. I also know that tours to the yurts are offered on a guided basis. Therefore, if I am not hiring a guide, then I accept full responsibility for finding the route to any of the yurts.
