I didn't know much about the ethics of backpacking until this weekend. I now know how important it is to apply the "Leave No Trace Principles" while in the woods. I had FUN and that matters most. Thank you again for being awesome organizers! – Sarah N.
It was a great fall hike with great weather and great people to hike with and share the weekend. I learned lots this weekend. – Bob M.
