Mike’s had a wonderful experience. He says he’s looking forward to going again next summer. Certainly that’s the highest recommendation he can give.

Ben and I still talk about Slickrock and the father-son expedition. We didn’t get enough of it–.
Lynn Wright
1987
My favorite part was the food, stories, hot cocoa, and the swimming in the river.
Your pal, Adam Nabors
1988
Our "Slickrock Expedition" will be a wonderful family memory for Andrea and Andrew.
Walt Oldendorf

It was a special achievement for father and son, a shared adventure that lingers in our memories.
Ted Vaden

Next year I want to learn more plants, bushes, and trees so I can win that plant game again!
Clint Johnson
1991
You can separate “the men from the boys” on one criterion alone–camp coffee. Yours was superior.
Ervin Jackson
1992
On Monday I got up and dressed in high-heels for the office & wished I was in hiking boots and back in the mountains.
Margaret Burns
1993
I can’t begin to convey to my friends the beauty and vast peace of the Okefenokee, the bellow of alligators, the wonderful food, the smell of the campfire smoke and just marvelous popcorn . . . .
Lynn Galloway
1994
My day is so ruled by the clock–but I can remember a week without a watch, when the sun determined the beginning and end of the day.
Linda Heilig
1995
The Congaree Swamp was the closest contact with nature I have ever had.
Wayne Thonen
1996
You offer an experience where the focus is on the beautiful surroundings, rich with the mysteries and myths about the people who inherited the land long ago.
Corinne Cooper
1997
The Big South Fork was great. Loved the group, the river, the food–everything.
David Sprinkle
1998
I remember how good it felt to awaken at the second camp to a great breakfast, good friends, and the prospect of another day dedicated to a beautiful, ennobling hike.
Lili Tiegland
1999
You have given us some visual memories of the Ogeechee River and forest primeval that we will treasure for years.
Hadley Wilson
2000
Thank you for our glorious trip to Oregon’s Grande Ronde River . . . our memories of that wonderful week are powerful medicine against the hum-drum of daily life.
Martha Moore
2001
I wish we could have had just one more night around the cookstove, just one more bend in the river. The Rio Grande was everything you said it would be and more.
John Manual
2002
It was nice to watch you offer challenges, whether it be setting up a tent or figuring a way across a rock face and then waiting for the people to figure out the challenge for themselves.
Missy Manning
2003
Your stories, knowledge, and experience combined to make me feel I really knew Panthertown even after only a short time.
Becky Love
2004
I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed Big Bend “Surf’nTurf.” Every day held a different surprise, with the changes in terrain, different wildlife, different campsites, and the switch from hiking to canoeing. You also knew when to weave in a bit of “civilization”–whether it was dinner at Chisos Lodge or the night spent at the Gage Hotel.
Mimi McCrary
2005
I can remember SO clearly thinking that I would never live through the Bonas Defeat hike. Geeze, that had to have been 20 years ago! Since then, the Okefenokee, and then Slickrock. You opened up such a world for so many of us.
Eleanor Hughes
2006
To say the Blackfoot was a great trip is an understatement. It was my benchmark experience of 2006.
Sheryl Anspaugh
2007
If the success of any Slickrock trip is measured by the memories, then you should know that our family Big Bend trip was an incredible success.
John Barry
2008
The South River was a marvelous adventure. To get back in the woods and on such an isolated, clean river brought back a great peace of mind. . . .
Kathy Howe
2009
That is one of the things I enjoy about your trips. You must bring out the best because everyone is always so gracious.
Carole McCrary
2010
Just wanted to say a more formal thank you for a sensational week in Panthertown. As a leadership development experience for our company, it could not have been better.
