I'm now an experienced backpacker thanks to Outdoor Adventure Connection. Their workshops, presentations, backpack trips, and hikes have turned an interest in the outdoors into a passion. Andy is a natural at educating and promoting. He knows how to teach; he knows how to encourage; he knows when to challenge; he has a knack for connecting with people. He's creative, energetic, and a master at organization. – Karen C.

I wouldn't change a thing! This was an absolutely wonderful experience! Every detail was planned and well thought out by our guide.

I had the most fun together on Saturday night and then it was over! Would be nice to have had one more night! The guides were awesome. The park was just beautiful - I will go back! – Theresa G.
Every excursion was well planned and detailed. I enjoy being pampered as well as being fit. – Jennifer L.
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.
Aside from spending all that time in the beautiful outdoors, I liked the workshops the best. Tama and Andy flawlessly conveyed years' worth of backpacking/camping knowledge to us in an understandable and entertaining way. – Lucy W.
We have an excellent safety record at Outdoor Adventure Connection. But on other trips we have been called upon to help.
