Loved the presentations, the humor, the information. Andy is a natural teacher, you made the Leave No Trace fun even for adults, and through the chuckles, made it thought provoking too. – Glen B.

This trip went far beyond my expectations. The details that were put into the trip, preparation, workshops, activities, handouts, follow-up, pictures, were all 'extras' that were not expected. – Jessica H.

What I like best is learning survival skills out in the woods but also those that could be applied to every day life such as Stopa! – M.W.
It was a great trip, well organized, fantastic bunch of people and overall a wonderful few days. Thank you. I loved the entire weekend and it was well worth my 10hr drive home. Thanks Andy. Will be keeping an eye out for more trips. – Olivia E.

Great fun excellent accommodations and planning. – Jeni W.
Well organized and informative. I really liked the ability to hike the AT with an experienced guide. I got out of this what I hoped for and then some. The experience accelerated my learning curve and ability to do multi-day backpacking trips. – Rick J.
I especially enjoyed the creek crossing! I was also very glad to learn about additional techniques for hanging bear bags and all sorts of general safety tips. I can't think of anything I would change - even glad I now know how to handle backpacking in the rain. – Jessica C.
We have an excellent safety record at Outdoor Adventure Connection. But on other trips we have been called upon to help.
