Activities and Risks. Climbing on artificial climbing walls, and related activities (including, but not limited to, bouldering, challenge type activities and fitness or exercise classes) exposes participants to numerous risks which might result in physical and emotional injury, death or property loss or damage. These risks include, among others, the following: falling, to the floor or pads; falling or swinging into the climbing wall and other structures and objects; being struck by falling climbers, hardware, tools, broken or dropped holds and other objects; entanglement in ropes; abrasions and/other injuries from contact with climbing walls, ropes, holds, loose holds, dropped holds, broken holds, pads, or the floor. Climbing and belaying equipment and structures may malfunction, be defective, or fail; and absorbing materials, including pads, below the wall may not prevent all injuries from falls. Participants may participate out of control or beyond their limits or otherwise act in a negligent or intentional manner which contributes to the injury or death of themselves or another participant. Staff, visitors, belayers and other persons present may act negligently or engage in other wrongful conduct. Aiguille Rock Climbing Center may fail to warn participants or the natural guardians of certain inherent risks. These risks are inherent in a participant’s enrollment and climbing and related activities and they cannot be eliminated without altering the nature of the experience. Other risks may be encountered. If I am the natural guardian of a minor participant, I have explained the risks and possible outcomes to the child. I, and the child, understand them and we both choose for the child to participate nevertheless. My, or the child’s, participation is voluntary.

COVID-19 : The threat of the Covid-19 virus (coronavirus, “the virus”) requires a heightened awareness of the disease and preventative measures to reduce the chances of infection, of Visitors and staff. All Visitors must read carefully, understand and comply with the “COVID-19 Update” posted at the Park’s website and ask questions if they are not clear about preventative measures required. Visitors must 1) be free of infection and circumstances which might indicate the possibility of infection, 2) frequently sanitize hands and equipment 3) wear a face cover 4) maintain the separation recommended by health authorities except when momentarily unavoidable (for example, when attaching to and detaching from the zipline), and 5) immediately report to staff any condition or conduct which might indicate the presence of or contribute to the spread of the virus, or any other communicable disease. The zipline tour activities include travel along the zipline (cables) at heights of up to 150 to 200 feet. Ziplines may descend steeply and will cross ravines and lake inlets. Travel from one zipline to another may be over steep and uneven ground and may be strenuous. Participants, instructed by staff, will be attached to the cable by means of a lanyard clipped onto the participant’s harness. The participant will then move, often with considerable speed, down and along that cable, to a stopping point at which, with the momentary assistance of staff, the participant will disconnect from the cable and move to another line, or off the tour. Participants share the responsibility with staff for assuring that they are properly attached to a lanyard before beginning down the zipline. A harness which is not attached to a secure point provides no protection, and a fall and serious injury are almost certain to occur. Several ziplines cross bodi...
