Commercial river outfitters; limited liability

Complete·6/19/26

Arizona HB2279 limits liability for commercial river outfitters in Grand Canyon National Park.

Arizona HB2279 amends the state's statutes to limit the liability of commercial river outfitters in Grand Canyon National Park. This bill exempts outfitters from liability for injuries or deaths of their employees resulting from inherent risks of river trips, unless the outfitter is grossly negligent or commits intentional acts. Participants can waive claims through a liability release. The bill defines "river trip" and "commercial river outfitter," clarifying that outfitters have no duty to mitigate inherent risks.
