I loved how easy this event was for me. I didn't have to think about anything other than showing up. I loved every activity and honestly can't think of anything to change. I can't wait to do another one in the future. – Melissa L.
The workshops were excellent. The guides were very helpful; answering many questions from me and fellow backpackers. – Kris S.
I had an absolutely amazing time in the Roan Highlands. We hiked over beautiful grassy balds and mountains and had gorgeous weather, and were able to see all the mountains surrounding us. We saw beautiful flowers: rhododendrons blooming and fire azaleas and all sorts of wild flowers. I wish everyone could see such beautiful things and experience such peace, being out in nature. – Alyssa R.

Thank you so much for the memorable experience!! I thoroughly enjoyed it and will remember this gig for a lifetime! – Prasad T.
I loved the caving and rappelling- really physically and mentally challenging ourselves. Kristy is such a calm moderator and speaker creating a trusting environment where we felt so accepted for who we are. This enabled everyone to share without fear or embarrassment of showing our emotions. I loved all the various activities with yoga in the mix to relax the body and mind. – Mary U.
The pace of the activities planned was spot on. Enough time to enjoy each of them and enough down time in between to get ready for the next. I can’t think of anything that could have been better. – Ann Y.
Great fun excellent accommodations and planning. – Jeni W.
Fantastic! I learned a lot. – Beate T.
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.
Loved the caving and guided hikes, also loved the attention to detail and all the small touches. – Maria D.
Don't change a thing Andy! I had a fantastic time. – Chris C.
I'm glad I went on this trip. I learned that the AT is a friendly place and that I can climb a mountain and gained confidence to return some other time and do it on my own. It was great meeting such a nice group of people, and I made some new friends to hike with back home. – Cheryl T.
The guides made everyone feel welcome and safe. – Nicole L.
We have an excellent safety record at Outdoor Adventure Connection. But on other trips we have been called upon to help.
