WARNING 
INHERENT RISKS 
AND 
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK

In consideration for me and my Group Members being permitted by Eagle County, Colorado, a body corporate and politic to use Spencer’s Cabin and related property located at Mile 43 of the Upper Colorado River in Eagle County, Colorado (collectively “Spencer’s Cabin”), I, the Group Leader, and my Group Members acknowledge there are inherent risks associated with backcountry and wilderness travel and use of Spencer’s Cabin and hereby expressly assume all risks associated with such activities and the use of Spencer’s Cabin.

I/We understand that these risks, hazards and dangers include without limitation:

(1) Risks arising from any activities in areas that are not patrolled or policed, where conditions vary and are not maintained or controlled and are unpredictable and changeable, where obstacles are not marked and hazards may not be visible, where weather is changeable and unpredictable;
(2) Risks involved in decision making and route finding in a wilderness environment and risks of getting lost and of not reaching Spencer’s Cabin;
(3) Risks arising from travel on the Colorado River and overnight stays in a wilderness environment with access by water only;
(4) Access to Spencer’s Cabin is by the Colorado River alone and there is not currently legal public access to a public road or through adjacent property;
(5) Risks arising from the use of a remote, simple cabin with no communication systems or services in a wilderness environment;
(6) Limited or remote medical care and the potential for me or a Group Member to act in a negligent manner that may cause or contribute to injury to me as the Group Leader or to Group Members.

I/WE acknowledge that an active rail road line runs through a portion of the property and that I/We agree that we are not to approach, walk on the rail road tracks or otherwise attempt to cross the rail road tracks as the rail road is in active use. Crossing or walking on the track is strictly prohibited and is at your own risk. Entering rail road property is considered a trespass.

I have read the information provided to me by Eagle County concerning the use of Spencer’s Cabin and hereby represent and warrant that I have provided the information to my Group Members. 

I/We also acknowledge that Eagle County Open Space staff is available to more fully explain to me/us the risks, hazards and dangers of use of Spencer’s Cabin. 

I/We understand that use of Spencer’s Cabin in a wilderness environment with access by the Colorado River alone may require good physical conditioning and a degree of skill and knowledge different from other activities. I/We understand that I/We have responsibilities as a backcountry user(s). 

I/We have been provided and are familiar with Spencer’s Cabin Rules and Information and agree to comply with the same. The Rules and Information can be found above or at http://www.eaglecounty.us/OpenSpace/Spencers_Cabin/

I, as the Group Leader, accept responsibility for the conduct of my Group Members.
