I understand these activities take place outdoors and may involve changing weather, terrain, wildlife, and inherent environmental risks.

• Injuries caused by horses or other animals

• Slips, trips, and falls on uneven terrain

• Weather-related injuries

I voluntarily assume all risks, known and unknown, foreseeable and unforeseeable, associated with participation in these activities.

In consideration for being permitted to participate, I hereby release and hold harmless:

Extremtrail, its owners, operators, instructors, employees, agents, landowners, and representatives

from any and all claims, demands, actions, or causes of action arising out of or related to:

• Personal injury

resulting from participation in any Extremtrail instructional activity, including those arising from ordinary negligence to the fullest extent permitted by law.
(Under Colorado law, an equine professional is not liable for injury or death resulting from inherent risks of equine activities.)
