SAMPLE WAIVER FOR TESTING ONLY. Replace this text with the club's approved waiver (edit waiver.txt in the box's data folder) before using the box on a real trip.
ASSUMPTION OF RISK. I understand that hiking, backpacking, climbing, snowshoeing and other outdoor activities involve risks, including but not limited to uneven and slippery terrain, falling rocks and trees, water crossings, wildlife, weather, getting lost, physical exertion, and being far from medical help. I choose to take part voluntarily and accept these risks.
MY RESPONSIBILITIES. I am responsible for my own safety, equipment, food, water and physical condition. I will follow the trip leader's instructions, stay with the group, and tell the leader before leaving the group for any reason.
RELEASE. To the fullest extent allowed by law, I release the Trails Club of Oregon, its officers, directors, trip leaders and volunteers from any claim arising from my participation, except for gross negligence or intentional misconduct.
MEDICAL. I authorize the trip leader to seek emergency medical care for me if I am unable to do so myself, and I accept responsibility for its cost.
I have read this waiver, I understand it, and I sign it voluntarily.
