“I’m more aware of beauty around me and now I soak it in, receive it and feel a part of it. There’s a magical give and take with nature that I hadn’t named before. I feel like a gorilla, so surefooted and at one with nature!

I feel elated and free. Over and over, I was rewarded with spectacular views, a sense of accomplishment, and camaraderie. There was a bond between everyone. It started immediately, then continued to grow.”
