I went into the trip as a rising sophomore in highschool, not having really done anything like this before. Going into the trip I was worried, but after no time I made great friends, and had the most amazing time. The trip encouraged me to step outside of my comfort zone, and try new things that I have come to love. The trip opened my eyes to so many great new experiences, and I wouldn’t hesitate to participate in another GLA trip this coming summer. Between the friends I made, and the amazing things I did, this trip was awesome.

Pros

Fun rafting and swimming experiences along the Colorado River
Making new friends that I still am in contact with.
Stepping out of my comfort zone and discovering new opportunities that I love

Cons

Lack of cold water on the river
