I understand, accept and agree that the Activities involve numerous dangers and risks including unpredictable or variable snow or weather conditions; extreme cold; frostbite; hypothermia; high elevation; wildlife and domestic animal encounters; exposure to the elements; lack of shelter; trees, stumps, branches, and limbs; tree wells; marked and unmarked obstacles; natural or artificial features, objects, or debris; snow immersion; deep snow conditions; slush; ice; bare spots; unstable ice and snow (including but not limited to snow slides and avalanches); changes or variations in terrain or snow conditions; surface and subsurface conditions; open water hazards; rugged mountainous terrain; cliffs; ravines; collisions with other skiers, snowboarders and participants, snowmobiles, snowmaking and snow-grooming equipment or other vehicles, property or structures; operation of snowmaking equipment which may create blind spots or areas of reduced visibility; acts of other skiers, snowboarders and participants; carelessness and misjudgments on the part of other participants, Releasors, or Resort staff, including failure to follow applicable rules, policies and procedures; use of trams, gondolas, chairlifts, rope or other tows, moving carpets, or any other conveyance which may involve entanglement with equipment, objects, or other skiers, snowboarders, participants, or other individuals, errors in loading/unloading, and equipment malfunction or breakdown; slick or uneven walking surfaces. I understand, affirm and agree that: (i) I have the physical fitness and dexterity and the knowledge required to safely load, ride and unload the trams, gondolas, chairlifts, rope or other tows, moving carpets or any other conveyances; (ii) falls, collisions and injuries are a common and ordinary occurrence of the Activities; (iii) I shall obey all signs, markings, ropes and warnings posted at the Resort and all applicable laws and regulations; (iv) entering or skiing or snowboarding in a “CLOSED” area may be illegal and/or result in confiscation, revocation or suspension of the Pass or lift ticket; (v) skiing or snowboarding off of designated trails may be more dangerous to me and others than skiing or snowboarding on designated trails; (vi) there are risks involved in decision-making and conduct of others including risks involved with rescue operations and medical care conducted or provided by Resort staff or third parties inside or outside of Resort boundaries, risks associated with decision-making by Resort staff to open and close terrain, and the risk that Resort staff may misjudge weather, trail or snow conditions, route/terrain selection, or limitations of Releasor’s abilities that may make a certain aspect of the Activity inappropriate for the Releasor; and (vii) I will exercise caution around and will avoid snowmobiles, sno-cats, snowmaking and snow-grooming equipment, vehicles, structures, signs, immovable objects or other property that I may encounter at any time. Further, I accept the responsibility to maintain deliberate and conscious control and to take precautions to avoid hazards at all times while skiing, snowboarding or participating in other Activities. If applicable, I agree to read to, or to have Minor or other Releasors read, and to explain to Minor or other Releasors, if necessary, all posted Resort policies, signs, markings, and warnings including instructions on the use of trams, gondolas, chairlifts, rope or other tows, moving carpets or any other conveyances.

In snowboarding, cross-country, telemark skiing, snowshoeing, snowblading, ski boarding with skiboards or any other Equipment not equipped with release bindings, I understand, accept and agree that the binding system may not be designed to, and therefore will not ordinarily, release during use.
