Therefore, cancellation less than 2 weeks in advance or "no-shows" will result in a charge of $75 plus no refund of the deposit already paid.Cancellations need to be person to person. Messages left on voice mail are NOT acceptable. In case of rain, Trunnell's will make any cancellation decisions the morning of the trip. Please call that morning if you have any questions.
