Specific Disclaimer for Hiking: Hiking is an outdoor activity and carries a higher level of risk than most ordinary activities. Consequently, hiking can be potentially hazardous and/or dangerous. Unpredictable and/or unforeseen events or conditions, adverse weather (e.g., storms, lightning, flash flood, etc...), terrain (e.g., rock slides, mud slides, etc...), wild animals (e.g., bears, snakes, bees, scorpions, spiders, etc...), plants (e.g., if you ever stepped or fell into a cholla cactus then you know how serious this is) could injure or kill you. Many more natural and/or man made risks could lead to injury or death both on the trails and while traveling to the trails.   

Consequently, it is the responsibility of the users of this and all associated websites, video channels and books to learn the necessary skills for safe hiking and backcountry travel. Users have to have the proper physical fitness and gear, including proper detailed hiking map while hiking. The maps provided in this and all associated websites, video channels and books are NOT considered proper, detailed hiking maps. They are for general informational, and entertainment purposes only. The included GPS tracks are also provided only as general information, and users should not rely on their accuracy. GPS recordings and/or readings could be erroneous and might mislead the user. In addition, physical locations of trails change per the National Park Service’s (NPS) rerouting efforts. Trails could be closed by the NPS and/or opened in different directions under the same trail name than the trail descriptions or GPS tracks on this and all associated websites, video channels, books indicate. It is the responsibility of the user to ask advice from park rangers and park officials before attempting any hike on any trail. Various weather, trail, and/or wildlife warnings could be in effect that only local park rangers are aware of and only they can be a reliable source of information.
 
All users of this and all associated websites, video channels and books must assume full responsibility for their own actions and safety, exercise sound judgment, and be prepared for all conditions while hiking or traveling to the trails. These conditions change from day to day, and from season to season, therefore rendering any information on this and all associated websites, video channels, and books subject to change without warning.

Although the authors of TerrificTrails.com and all associated websites, video channels and books try to make the information contained as accurate as possible, as well as to point out some of the potential hazards on some of the trails, they disclaim any liability for accident, loss, injury, inconvenience, or any other damage that may be sustained by anyone using the information contained on this and all associated websites, video channels, and books. Those who use this information, and those who venture into backcountry wilderness, do so at their own risk. You are solely responsible for using your own judgment in interpreting and using this information to safely enjoy your hiking adventures.

The information contained on this and all associated websites, video channels and books is not to be considered a guide. Instead, it is available so that the users of the information see what the experience of the author/photographer was on that trail, on that particular day, in that particular hiking season. We take no responsibility, nor assume any liability for inaccuracies, errors, omission, incompleteness of any information, or changing conditions and/or circumstances on the trails. Terrific Trails Inc, its owners, its sponsors, its advertisers, and/or anyone contributing information to this and all associated sites, video channels, and books shall not be held liable for any inconvenience, accidents, rescues, injuries or loss of life should you undertake any of the hikes listed on this and all associated websites, video channels and books.
