Cancellation & Refund Policy:
Inclement weather is in the forecast, should we cancel?
The AWL guide has the sole responsibility to cancel a program due to weather conditions. Certain weather conditions are often unavoidable in Oregon.
What if we don’t get enough participants?
In order to guarantee that the trip will proceed, we must reach the minimum required number of participants at least 7 days in advance. If we do not reach that number by this time, we have the right to cancel the program.
If we need to cancel, how should we notify you?
The short answer is, the fastest and most direct way. An email or phone call as soon as you think you may have to cancel is the best option. Even if you're unsure, shoot us an email. It will be very much appreciated.
What if AWL cancels the program?
If AWL chooses to cancel a trip due to weather, environmental conditions, or otherwise, you will be given a full refund. Please note, our trips require the minimum number of participants listed above to proceed.
What if a participant cancels?
If you need to cancel your spot on a trip, you must do so at least 7 days before the date of the trip in order to receive a full refund. If you cancel within 7 days of your trip, you will be charged 50% of the total trip cost. If you cancel or no-show within 48 hours of your trip, you will forfeit the entire cost of the trip. There is no exception to this policy.
