ROOMMATE DISCLAIMER:
Double occupancy is standard on all trips. UTC attempts to honor roommate and rooming requests, but they are not guaranteed. Final room assignments are at the trip leader(s) discretion as room assignment changes may be required up to the time of trip departure. In some instances, trip participants may be assigned to room with a person they do not know, or may have to share a bed with a person they do not know of the same sex. If you do not wish to share a room or bed, single rooms may be available at additional cost. There may be instances when a trip participant must pay for single occupancy in order to go on the trip. Please check with the trip leader(s) for more information.

PLEASE READ THE FINE PRINT!: Harmel’s has gone through renovations since fall 2021. However, these are cabins you will be sharing (or some of the rooms are in a lodge) and we can not guarantee the number of bathrooms. This is a more rustic trip – it will be very laid back and you will have a great opportunity to get to know people around the campfire, in the saloon, relaxing by the Taylor River or during the activities. All cabins come with fridge, microwave – so BRING YOUR FAVORITE BEVERAGE!

NOTE: Please read UTC's Terms of Participation which includes UTC's CANCELLATION policy.
