CANCELLATION POLICY

OUR CANCELLATION POLICY​

At the time of making your booking, we require a 50% deposit. The remaining balance is due 14 days before your trip. If you book within two weeks of your reservation, full payment is due at the time of booking.  If you cancel your booking more than 14 days ahead of your trip, you forfeit your 50% deposit. If you cancel your trip within 14 days of the reservation, you forfeit 100% of the trip cost.

We are reserving seats on our snowcats for you and your group, thus, we are turning away potential guests. We strongly recommend purchasing Peek Protect booking protection which covers 80% of the cost of activities booked before taxes and fees if cancelled at least 24 hours prior to the start of your reservation. Bookings cancelled within 24 hours are not covered by Peek Protect. Full payment is required at the time of booking to purchase Peek Protect. Peek Protect can’t be purchased after the booking has been made. 

Jones Pass Guides is not responsible for other travel costs. If you have to cancel your booking and have not purchased Peek Protect, but can find someone else who will take your place, we will allow for this as long as your replacement comes on the day of your reservation. If we have to refund and then take a new payment, we will do this for a 10% administrative fee.  We are passionate about sharing our love of the backcountry safely with our guests. If for some reason we have to cancel due to lack of snow, mechanical failure, road closures or high avalanche hazard prior to your trip date, then we will credit your money to another trip in season based on availability or the following season without charging an administrative fee. If you’d like a refund immediately, then we will do so minus a 10% administrative fee. Jones Pass Guides does not provide refunds for a client’s inability to arrive on time or for health-related issues or cancellations due to family emergencies or injuries. Jones Pass Guides cannot be held responsible for a client’s personal inconvenience or travel expenses. Please ensure you review the email confirmation generated through our booking platform, Peek Pro. Double-check the date and number of guests for that day, policies, and other information provided.

Minimum seat policy:

Please note that there is a minimum of 4 guests required for single seat snowcat bookings in order to operate.  If we do not reach the required minimum, you could be rescheduled. Alternatively, we can offer a store credit for a future date. 

Refund Policy:

If you cancel a scheduled reservation/trip for any reason with a paid deposit and without Peek Protect Coverage:

  • Once you make a 50% deposit on your trip, your deposit is non-refundable (more than 14 days).
  • Once you have paid for the trip in full, your entire trip cost is non-refundable (14 days or less).
  • If Jones Pass Guides has to cancel your trip due to lack of snow, mechanical failure, road closures, high avalanche hazard, ect., we will issue a full credit valid through the following season or provide a refund minus a 10% administrative fee.
