Equipment Rental Policies

Note: You must agree to the following terms and conditions before entering a rental agreement with us.

• You will be held responsible for full repair or replacement cost of any equipment damaged
  through willful misuse or abuse. This does not include equipment damaged through regular wear-and-tear, unintentional misuse or accidental breakage;
• If rental equipment does not meet your performance expectations, we will refund the rental cost of that particular item;

Release of Liability

WARNING: You are about to enter a world of doom and gloom and legal-ese. But before we paint a picture of all the terrible things that might happen when you step outside your door to have an
adventure, we’d like to take a moment to share some of the things we do to reduce or prevent mishaps:

• Kielyn and Dave Marrone are both Wilderness First Responder (80h first aid);
• We are graduates of Laurentian University’s Outdoor Adventure Leadership Degree program,
  and have years of combined experience guiding expeditions year-round, including thousands of
  kilometres of remote wilderness expeditions;
• We carry extensive first aid, emergency and repair kits and are well versed in how to use them;
• We carry satellite communication (or cell communication if appropriate) devices on all our
  expeditions. This includes a SPOT messenger device and/ or a satelllite phone;
• All guest participants have the power of “Challenge by Choice”. That is, if there is ever an
  activity that they do not feel comfortable with, they are encouraged to speak up and share this
  concern with the guides and/ or group;
• We have a dedicated logistical coordinator at home who has years of experience in this position,
  and is well versed in our emergency protocols;
• Because we make much of our own equipment, we are well versed in their strengths,
  weaknesses and how to repair damaged equipment;
• We believe the style in which we travel is inherently much safer than many other outdoor
  pursuits. We try to travel at a slower pace and more in tune with the natural environment. We
  carry the tools and knowledge necessary to weather storms and remain comfortable in
  the wilderness for days on end. You will find we
  are firmly on the side of safety and comfort in the wild.
• We are a fully insured company.

  government, which conducts rescue operations in Ontario, does not have a history of charging
  for most rescues, though this may not be the case for international guests. Please look into
