Andy did a great job of organizing and leading the trip and the companionship was top notch. – Anne B.
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.
