A PERFECT weekend...well-planned, seamless, and packed with fun things. I'm not a sit-around-and-chat kind of girl. I do better connecting through activates, so I liked it jam-packed! I really appreciated the thoughtfulness of the extras.Renee W.

Andy's guidance was probably the best part of the trip and made me feel at ease.Ashley V.

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.

The guides were enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and friendly! Honestly I can't think of any improvements!Mary Beth A.

Thank you for taking the time to share your passion with others. I am so thankful for our trail experience together. What an amazing group of people. The laughter we all shared! Such an amazing experience!Andrea W.

We would never have done our first AT trip if not for Outdoor Adventure Connection. The whole trip was awesome. I love that you even arranged perfect weather for us. I learned so much and feel much more comfortable now about hiking overnight.Teri H.

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 would highly recommend the backpacking classes to anyone who would like to learn more tricks of the trade and find out how amazing trail magic can be. Shannon M.

I just completed a 3 day solo hike on the AT. When my friend decided not to go, I relied on the experience gained from your backpacking course to do it solo. I want to thank you for course!Carl R.

I had no backpacking experience. I knew nothing about equipment or how to prepare for backpacking. But I do now. Thank you!Deb G.

The BEST part of this weekend was the way you thought of every detail and planned the weekend so that we could enjoy it fully without worrying about being responsible for anything (other than staying safe and having fun!).  I really have no suggestions on how to make it better.Beth L.
