CLIMBERS UNDER THE AGE OF 18 REQUIRE EITHER AN ACCOMPANYING PARENT OR IF 16-18 PARENTAL CONSENT. THERE IS NO MAXIMUM AGE LIMIT, BUT CLIMBERS OVER 65 WILL REQUIRE CLEARANCE FROM A DOCTOR VERSED IN ALTITUDE MEDICINE.
ACCOMPANYING PARENTS CAN PARTICIPATE ON EXPEDITIONS TO BASECAMP ONLY.
NOTE THAT SOME INSURANCE COMPANIES WILL HAVE DIFFERENT RULES. SOME INSURERS INCLUDING GLOBAL RESCUE CAN ADVISE ON FAMILY PLANS.
