Andy, you are awesome. You gave us what was expected and a lot of extras. I learned a lot. – Kris S.

Absolutely satisfied and will tell all my friends about it. – Beate T.

The pace of the activities planned was spot on.  Enough time to enjoy each of them and enough down time in between to get ready for the next.  I can’t think of anything that could have been better. – Ann Y.

I loved the rappelling and the yoga in the cave, and of course, I always love hiking. The food was excellent, Linda and Kristy did a great job preparing it. The cabins were great, loved having the wood burning fireplace, and there was plenty of space for 4 people. The employees at the resort, from the restaurant to the guides, were all so nice. – Name Withheld

I loved the rapelling and caving! – Angela W.

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.
