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.
All guides very friendly, helpful & knowledgeable. I learned a lot. This was my first workshop and I thought it was the total package. – Regina C.
I can't think of anything to change or do better. The park, facilities, trails and amenities were absolutely wonderful and beautiful. Very happy! The guides were great! They were interesting, provided a personal experience and were so very knowledgeable. So enthusiastic! – Debbie D.

What can I say - I DID IT!!!! It was not as bad as I feared, and better than I hoped. – Jane G.

Workshops were great reminders and short frequent breaks along the trail to breath and take in the sights. – Marilyn H.

It's the small touches that I really appreciated. – Katy H.

Best weekend ever!!!!! I was inspired by both of my guides as well as my fellow backpackers to challenge myself to do things that I thought were beyond my own capabilities. The workshops were extremely informative for a beginner backpacker like myself. – Rose K.
