Well organized. Pace was perfect to new hikers. – Randy R.
We had an absolutely perfect weekend. The hiking pace was nice, the workshops were informative, and evening at the campfire trying out various types of freeze dried food and stoves was a blast. Thank you for a wonderful time. – Sophia Z.
I thought the hike and workshop were excellent. I think even experienced backpackers can benefit from this workshop. – Ned P.

Andy and Tama were great. They made everyone feel welcome and important. Everyone got something beneficial from the experience. The workshops were done very well. – Mike H.
Andy was a great guide and I had a wonderful time on the trail. I learned a lot about what to do and what not to do and I wouldn't change anything about his demonstrations. – Carmen P.
Totally enjoyed the experience and new knowledge obtained. – Gregg W.
We learned a lot of new information about how to prepare ourselves for backpacking. It was great to be able to rent some equipment and try it out before making the investment in backpacking equipment. I also loved that you tailored the information to what folks wanted to know. Wonderful experience overall! – Kari M.
Loved it all!! – Mary U.
OUTSTANDING trip and experience! I didn't know a thing about backpacking before this trip and by the time we got back to our cars on the last day, I no longer felt like a novice! I feel very comfortable going backpacking again without my wonderful guides now and actually am planning on going on a solo trip soon. – Ashley O.
