Description

This form is a model waiver and release to be signed by a person participating in a hike. The waiver and release is given in favor of the guide of the hike and the lodge where the hiker is staying. The Illinois Release of Liability, Waiver of Claims and Personal Injury, Assumption of Risk and Indemnity Agreement (hereinafter referred to as "Agreement") is a legal document designed to protect the owners and operators of state or national parks in Illinois from liability in the event of accidents or injuries that may occur while participating in hiking activities within these parks. With regard to hiking in state or national parks, the Agreement releases the park owners and operators from any claims, demands, actions, causes of action, or liability arising out of any injury, loss, or damage that may be sustained by the hiker, their property, or any third party during the hiking activity. The Agreement is intended to make hikers fully aware of the risks and dangers associated with hiking in state or national parks and to ensure that they assume these risks voluntarily. Hikers must acknowledge that hiking involves inherent risks such as falls, contact with wildlife, exposure to natural elements, and other unpredictable hazards. In the Agreement, the hiker acknowledges having read, understood, and accepted the risks associated with hiking, and they assume full responsibility for any resulting injuries, damages, or losses. The hiker agrees to release, discharge, and hold harmless the park owners and operators, their employees, agents, and representatives from any and all claims, liabilities, demands, actions, or causes of action arising out of the hiking activity. Additionally, the Agreement may include an indemnification clause, wherein the hiker agrees to indemnify and hold the park owners and operators harmless from any claims, liabilities, or damages arising out of the hiker's own negligence or willful misconduct during the hiking activity. Multiple types of Illinois Release of Liability, Waiver of Claims and Personal Injury, Assumption of Risk and Indemnity Agreement can exist with regard to hiking in state or national parks, varying in language and specific clauses depending on the park's requirements and regulations. These agreements can also be tailored for different types of hiking activities, such as guided hikes, overnight camping hikes, or specific trail use. It is important to carefully read and understand the Agreement before signing it, as it effectively waives the hiker's right to pursue legal action against the park owners and operators for any injuries or damages sustained during the hiking activity. Hikers should consult with legal counsel if they have any questions or concerns regarding the terms and conditions outlined in the Agreement.
