2. INSURANCE
It is the responsibility of all participants to make sure that they have adequate insurance cover for participation in all activities that are to be undertaken. This should include health, hospitalization, and personal possessions. In addition, and especially in the case of activities taking place in the mountains, this should include helicopter rescue and repatriation in case of an emergency. Participants are responsible for arranging their own transport to the meeting location, though SHEzone may facilitate carpooling, and ensure that they are adequately insured for passengers.
