  7. Quotes from Past Participants “My Wild Side trip to the Grand Canyon was one of, if not THE, hardest thing I have ever done, and one the most rewarding!

  8. Quotes from Past Participants “The moment I heard about the trip, the kid in me jumped up with joy. And, it turned out to be everything I expected and in fact much more. The staff ensured that we were all well trained - physically and mentally to accomplish this trip. The sight of the cliffs, the touch of the breeze, the soft rhythm of the streams, the campfire, the chit-chatter, the times we stood for each other. For me, it was a small adventure that will be cherished forever." ~Sapna C.
