THIS AGREEMENT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE SIGNING.
This Release of Liability, Assumption of Risk, Indemnification, and Media Release Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into by the undersigned participant (“Participant”) in favor of Vibe Tribe Adventures, including Vibe Tribe Adventures Eco Tours, Black Girls Hike Adventure Club, Urban Trekker, and all affiliated entities, officers, directors, employees, volunteers, contractors, independent guides, agents, and landowners (collectively, the “Provider”).
I grant Provider the irrevocable right to photograph, video record, and otherwise capture my likeness, image, voice, and written statements during participation in Provider activities. I authorize Provider to use such materials for lawful purposes including, but not limited to, advertising, publications, grant proposals, news releases, websites, emails, blogs, and social media, without compensation or further approval. I waive any right, title, or interest in such materials.
I understand that Provider offers adventure, outdoor recreation, wellness, educational, and travel-related activities including, but not limited to: hiking, nature walks, fishing, snorkeling, scuba diving, canoeing, stand-up paddleboarding, snowboarding, sky trekking, running, swimming, kayaking, surfing, camping, yoga, meditation, zip lining, backpacking, skiing, backcountry skiing, ski mountaineering, mountain climbing, rock climbing (indoor and outdoor), bouldering, ice climbing, and related activities (“Activities”).
I understand and acknowledge that participation in the Activities involves inherent and unavoidable risks that may result in serious injury, illness, permanent disability, death, or property damage. These risks include, but are not limited to, slips, trips, falls, collisions, drowning; exposure to uneven, steep, rocky, icy, or unstable terrain; extreme or changing weather conditions including heat, cold, snow, ice, water, and altitude; fast-moving or deep water; encounters with wildlife, including potentially dangerous animals; physical exertion, fatigue, dehydration, or medical events; equipment failure or misuse; and risks associated with transportation to and from the Activities. I knowingly, voluntarily, and expressly assume all such risks, whether known or unknown, foreseeable or unforeseeable, inherent or otherwise, even if arising from the ordinary negligence of Provider to the fullest extent permitted by law.
In consideration for being permitted to participate in the Activities, I hereby release, waive, discharge, and covenant not to sue Provider from any and all claims, demands, causes of action, damages, losses, liabilities, or expenses of any kind, including bodily injury, death, emotional distress, or property damage, arising out of or related to my participation in the Activities, including transportation to and from such Activities, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable U.S. law. This release applies to claims based on ordinary negligence. This Agreement does not release liability for conduct that cannot legally be waived under applicable law.
I understand that Activities may involve transportation in vehicles owned or operated by Provider or third-party contractors. I voluntarily assume all risks associated with such transportation.
I acknowledge that guides or staff may not be medically trained, that Activities may take place in remote locations, and that emergency medical services may be delayed or unavailable. I certify that I am physically and medically able to participate and assume full responsibility for my health and medical needs.
Provider makes no representations or warranties, express or implied, regarding the safety of Activities, equipment, transportation, facilities, or the experience, judgment, or actions of guides, instructors, or contractors.
I agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Provider from and against any and all claims, demands, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, or expenses of any kind, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or related to my participation in the Activities, my actions or omissions, or any claim brought by or on behalf of a third party in connection with my participation, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
I agree that this Agreement is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted under United States law. If any portion of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State in which the Activity occurs, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
If this Agreement is signed on behalf of a minor under eighteen (18) years of age, I certify that I am the minor’s parent or legal guardian and agree to all terms on the minor’s behalf. I further agree to indemnify Provider for any claims brought by or on behalf of the minor to the fullest extent permitted by law.
I acknowledge that I have read and understand this Agreement, that I understand I am giving up substantial legal rights, and that I sign this Agreement knowingly, freely, and voluntarily, without coercion.
