  Medical
This trip is a rigorous mountain climbing expedition. By its very nature it is physically demanding and involves travel to many areas where medical facilities are virtually nonexistent. IMCS will furnish a well-supplied first aid kit and our guides are certified in first aid, CPR and have taken courses specific to wilderness medicine. IMCS assumes no liability regarding provision of medical care. You are urged to check your insurance coverage to be sure it is adequate.
Once on the trip, IMCS reserves the right to remove any person from the trip, who, at the sole discretion of the guides, is judged to be a safety risk to themselves or others. This includes those persons who are not acclimating adequately, are not strong enough or skilled enough to safely climb. In this case, there will be no refunds.
