Warnings and Disclaimer
Volunteers
from the North West Walking Club Inc have made & maintained the Penguin –
Cradle Trail and prepared this map and these notes so that appropriately
experienced and equipped walkers can enjoy the scenery and experience of
walking the Trail.
This map
has not been prepared to accurate scale. The Trail is not regularly
inspected and maintained, can be rough underfoot and varies in standard.
Track conditions can change rapidly due to natural events like storms,
floods, fallen trees, and erosion and track markers can fall down or be
obscured. It may be that a part of the track has to rerouted after this map
is made. Some parts of the Trail are steep or exposed to rapidly changing &
potentially extreme weather conditions or can become slippery or otherwise
dangerous. These dangers increase if you and your party are not adequately
equipped, experienced and fit for the walk you plan and for the risks
inherent in walking in the areas through which the Trail passes.
Your safety
(and that of your party) on the Trail is entirely your responsibility. You
use this map and notes and the Trail at your own risk. The North West
Walking Club disclaims all liability arising in any way (including from any
negligence of the Club or any of its members) from the use by anyone of this
map, the notes or the Trail. |
