By signing below, I acknowledge that all activities sponsored or conducted by The Friends of Mount Evans &  Lost Creek Wildernesses (FOMELC), a non-profit organization, may be hazardous and may result in loss,  damage, injury or death. With full knowledge of these dangers, and in consideration for my acceptance as a  volunteer, and for the services and amenities to be provided by the FOMELC in connection therewith, I confirm  that I have read the foregoing and voluntarily assume all risks of such loss, damage, injury or death occurring in  connection with participating in FOMELC activities. I hereby agree for myself all of my family and heirs to  RELEASE FOMELC and any of its volunteers, employees, agents, leaders, instructors, guides, officers,  directors, or representatives from liability, claims, demands, or any causes of action arising from, or related to,  FOMELC activities. I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS A LEGAL DOCUMENT AND THAT BY SIGNING  IT I AM GIVING UP MY RIGHT TO SUE OR OTHERWISE MAKE ANY CLAIM against FOMELC or any  of its volunteers, employees, agents, leaders, instructors, guides, officers, directors, or representatives which  may arise during my participation in any activities with FOMELC. I intend this RELEASE OF LIABILITY to  be effective whether or not any loss, damage, injury, or death RESULTS FROM NEGLIGENCE of FOMELC or any of its volunteers, employees, agents, leaders, instructors, guides, officers, directors, or representatives.
