I loved the route plan, absolutely beautiful. Great time of year for this section, not too cold (keeps bugs away) and not too hot. The folks were great, fun. – Diana P.

Andy and his team are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. They provided valuable beginner backpacker information in a welcoming and encouraging environment. – Terra D.
I loved meeting new friends and comparing equipment. I don't think I would change a thing. I liked the fact that every time we talked about things like water filtering or camp stoves, someone there had used something different and we got to see how they worked. Visual experience is always the best. – Sara D.
It was great! Thanks to Andy for all the knowledge and wisdom you imparted to us!! Your preparation was top notch! – Vicki G.
Perfect distance each day, Andy flexible when appropriate. Awesome section of trail - good mix of scenery. Cool hostel - good experience. Loved the documents to read through. Andy truly taught us vs. just doing for us. Overall great experience! – Toni M.
