They certainly make you think twice before registaring!
Once we had taken the plunge and agreed to complete the application forms there was a small section which needed to be signed by a family doctor...
"The person named overleaf will be participating in a charity fundraising trek of 12 days duration, during which time they will be subject to long flights, and basic camping and living conditions. The demands in more detail will involve trekking for 8 hours per day for 6 days over rough terrain and will involve extremes of temperatures and climate. Participants will be staying in basic accomodation with possible long drop toilets and primitive washing facilities.
Food will be cooked on gas burners. Discover Adventure will provide a first aid trained leader (or doctor depending on group size) for each trip to give immediate first aid and ensure high hygiene standards are taught and maintained. The event maybe a considerable distance from any hospital backup."
So basically are you sure...are you really sure you want to do this!
