Note: A cancellation option can only be exercised once. Once you decide on a cancellation option, it cannot be changed again in the future. As an example, if you decide to move your trip credit towards a future Miyar Trip you've exercised the cancellation option. If you then decide to cancel your trip, we cannot offer a refund. In addition, if you decide on a trip credit to a future Miyar Trip, it applies to you and cannot be transferred to another person.

Why do we have this cancellation policy?

The primary reason we have this cancellation policy is to protect our staff. Our guides come from a variety of locations and have planned their guiding season around work that we have promised them months in advance. When clients cancel, our guides are at risk of losing work and the cost of being on location for that work. By retaining some of the trip cost we are able to have our guides work when cancellations may have resulted in the need to cancel a trip or reduce guide numbers to cover our costs.

The registration fee helps us recover some of the costs associated with time our office staff spends on client communication and the registration process. It also contributes to the expense of advertising a newly opened space when clients cancel.

Because outdoor activities are lower in priority than work, family, and health, cancellations are very common. Thanks so much for understanding our need to put these policies in place to protect our staff and our small business. We really appreciate your support.

Bad Weather:

We run our trips rain-or-shine. In the Pacific Northwest rain and snow are common in the mountains, and our business would not survive if we cancelled or rescheduled trips due to weather. Please do not ask to cancel or reschedule your climb due to weather. These requests will not be granted. Our guides are excellent at adapting itineraries to maximize comfort. For the rare circumstances where weather is a safety concern, your guide or our office staff will reach out to you to make arrangements to reschedule.
