Expedition Protocols

If the Host Dies/Is Impeded During the Climb

  • More than 5 minutes from the summit: Ask the Co-Host to lead the group to a safe place and wait for you, or continue leading if waiting takes too long.

  • If there is no Co-Host, choose one participant to lead.

  • Less than 5 minutes from the summit: If you cannot catch up, ask the Co-Host or a trusted participant to take the summit photo for you.

If the Host Must Leave in the Middle of an Expedition

  • You are responsible for appointing a leader before leaving.

  • Transfer leadership to the Co-Host

  • If none are available, appoint a trusted participant to lead and ask them to provide a screenshot at the summit.

  • A Co-Host who takes over officially becomes the new Host for the remainder of the expedition.

If the Co-Host Leaves

  • If the Co-Host leaves after completing at least half of the route, they will still be counted as a Co-Host.

  • If they leave before the halfway point, they are not counted as a Co-Host.

Canceling an Expedition

  • If no one reacts to the Expedition Shout

  • If no climbers show up

Role of Co-Host

  • Maximum of 2 Co-Hosts per expedition.

  • Co-Hosts must assist the Host, ensure everyone is following, wait for AFK climbers, and guide participants who are lagging.
