The trip was just what I was looking for and more!Randall B.

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.

It was great being able to stay in cabins, not camp out. The friendly and involved park staff made the event a sure success.Frank C.

The guides did a great job explaining everything in detail and was very easy to talk to. Any question I asked was answered thoroughly. My wife and I really enjoyed this experience! Highly recommended!Joe T.

Thank you Again Andy for a Wonderful Weekend. Beautiful Scenery, Perfect Weather and a GREAT group of Hiking Friends. These trips definitely allow me to go to places I would NEVER venture out on my own.Kimberly S.

The guides were terrific! Very kind and encouraging. The workshops were very informative- but I most just enjoyed all the stories and great tips that were shared throughout the trip. This was the best thing I have done for myself in a long time!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.Laura H.

Paddleboarding and kayaking were the best!Patty S.

I liked how open the guides were to questions - felt like I could ask anything, no matter how silly or trivial it was.Fran G.

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 thought the experience was great. I came to just hike and see the beautiful scenery but I truly learned a great deal from all of you.Rachel M.
