The pace of the activities planned was spot on. Enough time to enjoy each of them and enough down time in between to get ready for the next. I can’t think of anything that could have been better. – Ann Y.
This was a great introduction to backpacking. A just right experience for beginners enhanced by beautiful weather. – Ellen G.
Great way to dip one's toe into the water of backpacking without having to make a full commitment. – Emily O.
Workshops were very good and spread throughout the weekend. I felt comfortable asking questions. – Candy A.
The guides were terrific! Very kind and encouraging. The workshops were very informative- but I most just enjoyed all the stories and great tips that were shared throughout the trip. This was the best thing I have done for myself in a long time!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. – Laura H.

The trip was very informative and answered many questions that I had about backpacking. The park was lovely and had great terrain. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable. I would do this trip again and recommend it to others who were interested in backpacking. Thank you! – Robbin C.
I learned so much on this trip, like how to fit my backpack, how to set up my tent, how to start a fire, how to cross a river and how to be a responsible backpacker. I was surprised that we got the chance to try so many varieties of backpacking food. – Junlan L.
The entire trip was great. I was at ease as soon as I met all the guides. They were professional and made the trip a fun learning experience, even in the rain. I couldn't ask for a better program to learn backpacking skills. I'm thankful I signed up. Thank you for a great adventure! – Catie H.

Typical well planned trip by Andy. Fun had by all! – Scott B.
I thoroughly enjoyed this trip! The workshops were extremely helpful when considering planning a trip on my own. I loved having only women on the trip. Nothing against men but a trip with only women has a completely different energy and it was wonderful. – Terry C.
The course, workshops, guides and time spent was excellent and I hope to do other courses in the future. – Joe V.

I learned a lot and enjoyed meeting a great group of people. – Melissa T.
