What to Wear
All riders are required to wear long pants and closed toed shoes. You should be prepared for the ever changing weather conditions in Central Oregon.  We suggest that you dress in layers.  Mornings, evenings, and higher elevations can be very cool and afternoons can warm up quickly. 

All tours include the use of a helmet, goggles, and gloves.

Reservations and Cancellations
In order to confirm a reservation, a full payment for all members of your party is required.  If you cancel or change the reservation 48 or more hours prior to the trip date, the deposit will be refunded (subject to the non-refundable booking fee).  For any cancellation or change to the reservation (in any way) within 48 hours of the trip date, 50% of the deposit will be forfeited.

If for any reason Central Oregon Adventures cancels a trip (such as unsafe conditions), a full refund will be given.  This is very rare and should not be expected.

Please note:  A non-refundable 4% booking fee will be charged for all reservations.

Groups of 6 or more machines will be charged an 18% gratuity.  Otherwise, gratuity is not included in the price, never expected, but always appreciated.


Security Deposit

A security deposit is required for each machine prior to departure.  This deposit is held on a major credit card, which means no charges will be seen on your card unless you cause damage to the machine.

Prior to the departure and upon return, we will inspect the machine with you and note any damages. You are responsible for any and all damages to the machine that occurs while in your care.  We will provide a written estimate for repairs within 3-5 business days.  We will notify you of the estimate and then run the charges on the credit card left as a deposit unless other payment is arranged.

Any damage to a part constitutes full replacement of that part.  Full replacement of the equipment can run up to $7500.00 and can include additional recovery fees.
