I acknowledge that I intend to undertake an organised activity with Himalayan Experience Ltd and that in order to do this I will need to involve myself in special travel, risks of various kinds, different living conditions and foods, and different altitudes and weather patterns.

In consideration of, and as payment for, the right to participate in such activities and the services and food arranged for me by Himalayan Experience Ltd I have and hereby assume all the associated risks and will hold them harmless from any and all liability, actions, causes of action, debts, claims and demands of every kind and nature whatsoever which I now have or which may arise out of or in connection with my trip or participation in any other activities arranged for me by Himalayan Experience Ltd. The terms hereof shall serve as a release and assumption of risk for my heirs, executors and administrators and for all members of my family, including any minors accompanying me.

Nothing in this Agreement Form is intended to exclude or limit in any way Himalayan Experience Ltd’s liability for death or personal injury caused by its negligence, or any other matter for which it would be illegal or unlawful for it to exclude or attempt to exclude its liability.

The expedition leader is responsible for the general equipment and all logistics of the expedition, including the choice of route and location of camps. During the expedition the leader may assist clients on his/her own rope, or may delegate staff members to assist. The leader or assistant will demonstrate fully the procedure for the safe use of fixed ropes. Expedition members are expected to fully understand these instructions for ascent and descent and comply with them at all times during the expedition.

The expedition leader may at times be required to be a technical advisor for other parties climbing independently on the same mountain.

The Sherpas employed by Himalayan Experience Ltd. are considered as members of staff. They will assist in all aspects of the expedition, including the fixing of ropes and carrying of party equipment and placement of camps. Only upon arrangement are they responsible for carrying the personal equipment of participants.

The team members will have to deal with a hostile environment including changes in temperature, weather and culture. Objective dangers and medical problems may occur which are linked with the altitude and lack of oxygen, which could lead to Altitude Sickness, Frostbite or Death. This environment and living closely in a small group may generate stress problems for some participants.

The expedition leader or assistant may in the interest of safety request the participants to stop the ascent any time during the expedition.

You have filled in all the relevant forms required for application truthfully and agree to the Release and Assumption of Risk.

You have read all the information supplied to you including terms and conditions and accept this.
