If you are running late\, please give us a call at 507-467-2437.\n\nCan I just show up and pay at the door?\n\nWe strongly advise pre-registering online to ensure you get a spot! There is a maximum number of participants allowed at each session\, so if all spots are already filled for the day/time you show up you will not be able to go on the course.\n\nIs there an age limit to enter the event?\n\nHeight is more important than age for the course. We require a participant to be at least 30" tall from the ground to their belly button. (Shorter participants will be unable to stretch their tether from the harness to the above belay wire\, and therefore\, unable to safely attach to the course.)\n\nParticipants under 18\, accompanied by someone other than their parent/guardian\, must provide a medical form signed by a parent/guardian to participate. Please print and sign this form and present at check-in.\n\nWhat if there is bad weather?\n\nThe course will be open rain or shine. Please dress appropriately for the weather conditions. The event will only be called off if the instructors deem the weather unsafe and in that instance if you have not attempted the course you will be provided a refund. \n\nHow long will the course take?\n\nThe time for the event can take anywhere from 1-3 hours. Included in the time for the high ropes course event: walking to the course\, going through equipment and safety protocols\, watching an instructor demonstrate the course and then each individual enters the course. Your exact amount of time is usually determined by when you ascend the course in relation to the other participants as well as how many times you choose to go through the course in the allotted time. The course itself takes anywhere from 10-40 minutes for each individual. Once you (and any individuals you came with) are finished with the course\, you are free to leave. \n\nWhat else can I do at Eagle Bluff?\n\nThere are lots of trails to hike at Eagle Bluff. Maps are available to guide you on you exploration of deciduous woods\, rolling prairies\, coniferous woods\, or the Root River. Besides hiking\, we have several very unique overlooks at the bluff. There are also picnic tables around campus for public use. \n\nWhat is the cancellation policy?\n\nTo receive a full refund a cancellation must be made at least 24 hours prior to the start of the event or by 4pm Friday for a weekend event\, whichever comes first.\n\nHow can I contact the organizer with any questions I have?\n\n507-467-2710 or shannonl@eaglebluffmn.org507-467-2710 or shannonl@eaglebluffmn.org X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:
