I highly recommend Outdoor Adventure Connection to anyone considering a backpacking trip. This program teaches you all the fundamentals required to not only be safe, but also have fun and feel comfortable backpacking without a guide. Thanks so much! – Dirk W.
Just wanted to let you know what a spectacular weekend we had. I could not have been happier signing up for this trip. For a while, I've been wanting to do more backpacking, but just now brave enough or confident enough to venture out on my own. – Nancy B.
Thank you so very much for allowing me to be a part of this trip. The views, the climbs, the learning, and the adventure made this a great experience. – Ben K.

Excellent process beginning to end. – Christina P.
A perfect "beginning".... Our leaders were educated, informative, sharing, real and FUN! Andy was aware of each participants needs, comforts and limitations. – Terri J.
The program covers the ethics behind Leave No Trace principles and why we all should try our best to be good stewards of our environment. Captain Blue's leadership and interpersonal skills were second to none. He is the consummate professional but keeps the atmosphere relaxed, fun and flexible. Thank you for exceeding my expectations. – Dirk W.
I enjoyed hearing from the guides about their experiences on the trails. Great group of people. – Sharon H.
Every detail was accounted for which is impressive given the amount of details involved! Making sure we all had instruction and communication on what came next was so great. You both truly made us each feel welcomed and included and safe. I cannot express enough how awesome it all was! – Christina P.
Andy's guidance was probably the best part of the trip and made me feel at ease. – Ashley V.
The hands-on workshops with water filters and fire building were especially helpful to me. There was much value in having a guide with Yvonne's vast experience to talk to women about backpacking safety and other issues from a female perspective. – Laurie J.
You really raised the bar for future trips! The scenery was spectacular. It was good to brush up on my water-crossing skills, too. This may become one of my favorite hikes ever. – Glenn R.
Was a really good class all around! Thanks!! – Rindy W.
Well organized. Pace was perfect to new hikers. – Randy R.
Motivational. This backpacking trip was exactly what I needed to encourage me to continue. – Mike D.
I like the caving trip the best! There isn't an anything that I can think of that I would change. – Rita L.

We have an excellent safety record at Outdoor Adventure Connection. But on other trips we have been called upon to help.
