What CAN be Refunded:

- All trips will require a minimum number of vehicles to participate.

Should this occur, it would be under very rare circumstances. • Please note that the trip substitute chosen may be more or less expensive than the original trip and therefore may be subject to an additional cost or partial refund for the difference. • All trips are Permit dependent, in the event a permit is not issued or is revoked for any reason regardless of date, you will be given a full refund prior to the departure date. This may or may not prevent the trip from proceeding. In the event a permit is not available and the forest service allows, we will still take the trip at no cost to you. Any additional refunds due to extenuating circumstances will be reviewed on an individual basis and is at the sole discretion of GoXplorUSA as to if a refund will be given in full or in part. Kindness goes a long way.

- Weather is something that happens and is part of the adventure. Trips will not be canceled due to anything short of a known extreme event. This will be extremely rare as we can't predict the weather when we are setting dates for trips. We will however attempt to schedule trips when extreme weather is less likely. In the event of extreme weather after departure we will take precautions to stay safe and alter the trip accordingly, when possible, you are always welcome to leave the trip and return later during the same trip.

- We will not refund any expense incurred by the participant on the way to, during or after the event has concluded. For example: Any hotel or fuel expenses, Medical needs or any vehicle issues regardless of cause will not be compensated by GoXplorUSA.  We will however do our best to help you any way we can during the event. We understand vehicles break down from time to time. It is very important that you keep up the maintenance on your vehicle. Any breakdowns will impact the whole group. We highly recommend getting your vehicle inspected by a certified mechanic and serviced prior to any adventure. Being a responsible overlander includes knowing your vehicle and having parts replaced before they fail.
