Medical

Travel in remote regions involves risk. We are outside the range of timely access to medical treatment and evacuation. Even in cases of trauma, it could take days for help to arrive. If you have questions, please call for additional information about the trip.

Participants should be in good physical health. We can not effectively advise you on whether the trip is appropriate for you. A recent medical examination and discussion with your doctor about the specific trip you are planning to join is recommended. We recommend that all participants undertake an appropriate physical conditioning program well in advance of the trip.

Mental preparation is also essential to your safety and enjoyment of the trip. Wilderness travel can be a fun, relaxing and awe-inspiring activity. But you may also be cold, wet, tired, sore, nervous, bug bitten and uncomfortable. A positive attitude and flexibility are important tools for coping with the travails of wilderness travel. Please be certain you are comfortable with the risks involved in wilderness travel before making this reservation.

We are not screening you nor are we medical professionals but knowing about you may help us plan for your trip.

Please provide an idea of your physical condition and any additional information you think may be relevant.
