While most activities you participate in involve some risk, we try to take every step to ensure that we minimize the risk as much as possible. With certified guides, strict policies, and the best equipment available on the market we will provide you with a fun adventure at the most minimal risk possible.

​

All of our guides are required to complete and pass an onsite training that is in accordance with industry standards. In initial training, guides receive their level 1 site-specific certification. Guides must complete a 40 hour on site training and pass a written and oral skills test. This must be renewed each year with documented 50 hour program experience and a skills audit. Once 300 hour program experience is documented, guides can be come level 2 or "senior guide" certified.

​

We undergo 4 types of inspections in accordance to industry standards. In each case, structures, equipment and the environment are examined.

1. Daily- visual inspection of the course to determine usability

2. Continuous- constantly checking the operational condition of the course and equipment through use

3. Monthly- certified course manager inspects the course and performs any needed maintenance

4. Annually- an outside certified professional inspector audits the course and equipment

​

Weather can also play a factor in course usability. We check local and national weather stations each morning to determine conditions. We also monitor radar throughout the day to ensure each tour is conducted or postponed at the proper time.

​

We take safety very seriously. Here are a few steps you can take to ensure your time with us is well spent.

1. Ask questions if you feel unsure about instructions or situations.

2. Disclose any medical or pertinent information that may hinder you on the course.

3. Empty your pockets of sharp objects or valuables.

4. Remove any jewelry and refrain from loose fitting clothes that could be caught.

5. Wear closed-toe shoes.
