This was a great experience for me. Very well organized. – Ashok K.
I loved the caving and rappelling- really physically and mentally challenging ourselves. Kristy is such a calm moderator and speaker creating a trusting environment where we felt so accepted for who we are. This enabled everyone to share without fear or embarrassment of showing our emotions. I loved all the various activities with yoga in the mix to relax the body and mind. – Mary U.
The course, workshops, guides and time spent was excellent and I hope to do other courses in the future. – Joe V.
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.
I thought the trip was very educational, especially for those really interested in learning key backpacking skills. – Carol C.
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.
I loved the trip and enjoyed it thoroughly! I was anxious before the trip because I wasn't sure if I brought the right items but Andy made me feel confident in my pack right by reviewing its contents and telling my why I needed/didn't need certain items. – Ashley V.
I loved being able to experience what it was like to hike the AT on my own. I liked finding my pace and having a goal location to find along the way. It was a wonderful experience!! – Sara D.
I learned so much on this trip, like how to fit my backpack, how to set up my tent, how to start a fire, how to cross a river and how to be a responsible backpacker. I was surprised that we got the chance to try so many varieties of backpacking food. – Junlan L.
I had a great time. I learned so much about backpacking. I really appreciate all the help I got, especially on the hill:) – Patty O.
This is a program I will recommend to anyone interested in expanding their knowledge of backpacking and the impact we all have while enjoying vitamin N. – Kate S.
This was my 2nd time attending and I really enjoyed it again. All in all, it was still another great experience that I would recommend to anyone. – Summer K.
