"This
was one of the best experiences of my
life. My trip group and leader were awesome!
It was a challenging trip, which I am
really happy about. It forced us to work
hard enough that we were proud of what
we accomplished at the end of the day.
It was a very rewarding trip. I learned
more about myself, others and how to
enjoy God's beauty!!!"

"These
new experiences really opened me.
I accepted and conquered these
elements and felt really good for
it. It made me appreciate the little
things in life and taught me that
the best things have to be worked
for. It gave me new determination
to get things done and get them
done well. In short, it's made
me a more self-reliant and efficient
person."

"I realized
that what I can do on trail and how far
I can push myself can be paralleled back
home."
