As a courtesy to those new to The Mountaineers we offer the following:
Trip leaders know the route and oversee the group. Leaders, in conjunction with a MOFA leader when present, are also responsible for managing the smooth exit of the group in the unlikely event of an emergency.  Trip attendees are expected to behave in a safe and responsible manner and be adequately prepared for the trip. Those who are not adequately equipped for the trip may, at the leader's discretion, be sent home for the sake of safety. So please, don't forget your 10 essentials.  Each guest must have a signed waiver on file. Waivers and must be filed by email to the showshoe leader before the trip.
