Excellent! – Tanya M.
I think it was great to have a woman as one of the instructors, its a great inspiration to hear from an accomplished and confident woman. – Terry C.
I really learned a lot and feel more prepared to go try this on my own. Both Andy and Lucy share the passion they have for this and that's infectious. – Rick S.
This trip was quite a triumph for me personally. The scenery was amazing. The culture of the AT is something I love and am fascinated by. But people are what make our lives the most meaningful. I could not imagine sharing the experience with 6 finer people on earth. – Chris C.

I had no backpacking experience. I knew nothing about equipment or how to prepare for backpacking. But I do now. Thank you! – Deb G.
I really liked the evening supper and getting to try all the different freeze dried foods to see what we liked. All the workshops were really great and I liked how all the information was presented in a fun and relaxed atmosphere! – Erika O.
The guides were friendly and helpful. The activities were varied and interesting. The cabins were lovely. – Patty H.

The trip was awesome. I honestly have nothing to say that could be improved. Great company, workshops and positive atmosphere! – Paula H.
Andy was a great guide and I had a wonderful time on the trail. I learned a lot about what to do and what not to do and I wouldn't change anything about his demonstrations. – Carmen P.
It was good getting new practical information on backpacking skills. I enjoyed learning how to cross streams. Thanks for your attention to all the pieces that made it a great trip! – Mary Ellen B
I liked that everyone was encouraged to do/try each activity but that no one was made to feel badly if they did not want to do something. It seems that everyone accomplished what they hoped and that people overcame their fears, too! – Amanda L.
I thought the trip was very educational, especially for those really interested in learning key backpacking skills. – Carol C.
What an amazing experience! Thank you for sharing it with me and others. – Noelle A.

The guide was a great leader. I will definitely do another. I look forward to the Appalachian Trail next year with you. – Jessica H.
I liked how open the guides were to questions - felt like I could ask anything, no matter how silly or trivial it was. – Fran G.
