How we split costs.
- Nobody pays to join the community, and there is no organiser fee or commission.
- A trek costs what the bus, guide, food and entry fees actually cost. We divide the total among the people who go.
- The cost sheet goes to the trek’s group after the trek, and the balance is settled from it.
