Who is Embark Exploration?

Embark Exploration Co. is our adventure outfitter that plans, preps, and executes our climbs. They have been supporting Blood Cancer United since 2017, at the inception of the Climb2Cure program. This team will help answer any logistical and planning questions for our participants – including but not limited to:

  • Trip costs and payments
  • Specific itinerary questions
  • Onsite meals and accommodations
  • Gear needs
  • Flight and insurance advice
  • Onsite needs and emergencies

Is there an age limit?

Individuals under 18 will be accepted to climb on a case-by-case basis and in most cases should not be an issue. Individuals 67+ will need to be asked for a doctor’s clearance before climbing.

What is the cost?

Please note that youth 17 and under MUST participate with a registered adult. For this program, each participant is responsible for covering their own trip fees and airfare. They will be eligible for reimbursement of these fees if they qualify for the Travel Reimbursement Incentive. The cost will vary per trip based on location and total number of participants on the trip, and all fees should be made payable to Embark. Generally, participants can expect trip fees to cost between $3,000-$5,000 plus airfare.

Trip Change Disclaimer

Day-to-day itinerary details are subject to change per Embark Exploration Co.’s discretion and will be communicated if or when changes are made. Please work with Embark directly to determine travel plans after you have secured your spot on the trip.

Insurance Information

Embark Exploration Co. does require each individual to purchase travel insurance. These details will be disclosed by Embark. All questions regarding insurance should be directed to Embark Exploration Co.

What happens if I can no longer participate?

  • Blood Cancer United: The participant may either drop from their event with no further fundraising responsibilities or transfer to another event within the year – this may be a DIY event with Embark or another Blood Cancer United exclusive climb if available. It should be noted that deposits made with Embark are non-refundable and some trip fees, if paid out, may not be refundable depending on Embark’s refund policy. See below.
  • Embark Exploration Co.: Embark has specific refund policies that are applicable based on the “drop” date. They will review this information with the participant upon registration. These terms are non-negotiable through Blood Cancer United. Initial deposits are non-refundable unless Embark chooses to refund in extraordinary circumstances. Additional refund policy details will be communicated by Embark Exploration Co.
