If You Choose Not to Attend: If Tracks of Her Own determines a trip is safe to run, but you choose not to attend due to weather, personal risk tolerance, or forecast concerns, our standard Participant Cancellation Policy applies. (This is why we strongly recommend travel insurance!)
External Expenses: Tracks of Her Own is not responsible for non-refundable external expenses incurred by participants (such as airfare, lodging, travel insurance, or personal equipment).
