First one I've been on, and it was wonderful. Great people, guides, location and activity. Thanks for pulling it together!!! – Name Withheld
I loved the way the information was presented and the environment the guides created! As a new backpacker, I learned a lot - but I also learned that I still have a lot to learn! – Morgan H.
A PERFECT weekend...well-planned, seamless, and packed with fun things. I'm not a sit-around-and-chat kind of girl. I do better connecting through activates, so I liked it jam-packed! I really appreciated the thoughtfulness of the extras. – Renee W.
What a fabulous adventure! Where to start? This section of the Roan Highlands is magical in its beauty. The flowers, the trees, the boulders, the steep climbs, the grassy balds, set against the backdrop of mountainous ridge after ridge were breath taking. – Karen P.
I thought the way the workshops were spread throughout the trip worked very well. I appreciated how candid the guides were in their presentations and in response to questions. – Eunice H.
I liked that every detail was thoroughly thought out. Trips like this enable the inexperienced hiker to gain valuable knowledge. Andy is the best at what he does! – Bill K.
Great company, great weekend! – Barb S.
Well organized. Pace was perfect to new hikers. – Randy R.
The guides went above and beyond to make sure "everyone" had a good time. I would recommend this for any one interested in hiking regardless of experience level. – Myron H.
I honestly had the best time! I have absolutely nothing but compliments. Keep up the good work Andy and please keep me informed of any other trips you plan in the future. Thank you!! – Andrea T.
I would not change a thing. Andy is very patient and a great teacher. I learned much on this hike. – Michele D.
A perfect "beginning".... Our leaders were educated, informative, sharing, real and FUN! Andy was aware of each participants needs, comforts and limitations. – Terri J.
It was all excellent. I would not have changed a thing. It was as described when I signed up. The guides were so helpful, informative, answered all questions and were only encouraging in all our efforts. I give them an A+ – Kelly E.
I don't know when I would ever get a chance to do that with such special people again. Loved it! – Janet R.
Andy is a great leader; he helped us with our weaknesses and praised our strengths. He provided a nice balance of group hiking and also let us hike at our own pace. I would recommend this trip to anyone who has interest in hiking any type trail for an extended period of time. Experienced hikers would definitely benefit as well. If you have every wanted to "get out there" this is the trip to take. – Charley S.
Thank you very much for a very fun backpacking trip/workshop. We leaned a lot and really enjoyed the trip. We will see you again on future backpacking trips! – Shao Z.
I thoroughly enjoyed this trip! The workshops were extremely helpful when considering planning a trip on my own. I loved having only women on the trip. Nothing against men but a trip with only women has a completely different energy and it was wonderful. – Terry C.
It is perfect. – Mary M.
I really enjoyed all. I feel a lot better thanks to this experience and feel more comfortable – Teresa P.
Really appreciate the Girl Scouts generosity in making this facility available. Having overnight accommodations does a lot to expand the participation. – Barry R.
We have an excellent safety record at Outdoor Adventure Connection. But on other trips we have been called upon to help.
