From Leave No Trace, to the simplicity of food choices, to starting a fire, I was amazed by all of the little tricks.Rachel M.

I liked the different demonstrations on equipment such as the stoves, water filtration, and hygiene for females. This is a great workshop for beginners and I can't think of anything that would make it better. You have done a great job and you have awesome guides! Thank you for a great experience!Erika O.

It was a great group of people. I had a lot of fun with them.Tama C.

Your talent of welcoming and creating a comfortable atmosphere for All the backpackers is quite impressive. The entire backpacking trip was well planned and quite informative. Thank you so much!Gayle B.

Over the past few days I have realized that the workshop and trip were even more important than I initially realized. The confidence that my knowledge and experience are sufficient to keep me out of major trouble had me smiling all the way homeLynn J.

Great backpacking adventure! Had a great time, met new folks and learned tons. Thank you.Janet S.

I wouldn't have changed a thing! I really enjoyed the dinner samples and playing the LNT ethics game. From start to finish, the whole trip was fun, educational and well-planned. Summer K.

The entire trip from start to finish exceeded my expectations. Even though we had rain during portions of the adventure, that didn't change a thing! May even made the trip a bit more challenging. Do not change a thing, all breakout sessions were great.Doug L.

I loved the daily yoga, especially the cave!Kelli B.

You really raised the bar for future trips! The scenery was spectacular. It was good to brush up on my water-crossing skills, too. This may become one of my favorite hikes ever.Glenn R.
