The Nelson Rock Preserve has got the best safety disclaimer that I have ever read. Here are a couple of my favorite excerpts.
Nature is unpredictable and unsafe. Mountains are dangerous. Many books have been written about these dangers, and there’s no way we can list them all here. Read the books.
The Preserve does not provide rangers or security personnel. The other people in the preserve, including other visitors, our employees, agents, and guests, and anyone else who might sneak in, may be stupid, reckless, or otherwise dangerous. They may be mentally ill, criminally insane, drunk, using illegal drugs and/or armed with deadly weapons and ready to use them. We aren’t necessarily going to do anything about it. We refuse to take responsibility.
I am thinking you might have to be bat shit crazy to even go into this park. They include their own employees as possibly being “stupid, reckless, or otherwise dangerous”. Personally I am sick and tired of everything in America requiring a warning and having to be dumbed down for the lowest common denominator. It is refreshing to see someone say, “Fuck off, you are responsible for your own actions. If you are to dumb to survive so be it but we aren’t taking responsibility.”
