I loved the AT Lingo workshop! – Elissa W.
What can I say - I DID IT!!!! It was not as bad as I feared, and better than I hoped. – Jane G.
I enjoyed the entire trip. he entire group had a terrific attitude about all the unexpected challenges we faced because of the weather. I think it was fantastic that the guides were able to be flexible, and had extra supplies to help us contend with the weather. – Krisy C.
I loved the route plan, absolutely beautiful. Great time of year for this section, not too cold (keeps bugs away) and not too hot. The folks were great, fun. – Diana P.
It was perfect. I liked the challenge on the trail and the size of the group is great. Perfect trip. Would like to be able to do more. – Andrea W.
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.
Had a great time! Guides were very knowledgeable and I loved how they shared their personal experiences and answered all questions thoughtfully and honestly. I will definitely take an advanced workshop. – Mike K.
The trip was wonderful and inspiring. My favorite part was crossing the river. I can not think of any changes needed. It was also nice to meet others interested in backpacking. It was impressive how hard the guides worked to assist us setting up camp on a rainy day and then cooking so many different foods for us to try. I will book another trip! – Sally D.
Another great weekend! I think all of the activities/events are well thought-out and planned, wouldn’t change anything. – Christina P.

Every excursion was well planned and detailed. I enjoy being pampered as well as being fit. – Jennifer L.
I thought it was helpful that Andy gave hikers individual guidance and checked in often to see how they were doing. I cannot think of anything that could have been done better. – Ray N.
I loved everything. All of the activities were well planned and coordinated. I appreciated that I didn't have to "think" I just showed up and everything was taken care of. The night of fellowship was a great time to share and get to know one another. – Sarah K.

I thought the hike and workshop were excellent. I think even experienced backpackers can benefit from this workshop. – Ned P.

It was a great time and I'll just echo what has already been said. Thank you Andy and everyone else for your advice and laughter. – Robb C.
