Best 2 Months Ever

The places we got to see were incredible, but more important than that was the community we built. Every single person I met here taught me so much. HMI gave me the opportunity to refine my leadership skills and develop technical skills such as navigation and backcountry cooking. Some days were certainly more challenging than others, but I never felt SO challenged to the point where I could no longer continue. There was an impressive variety of landscapes, including the Sawatch mountain range in Colorado, Bears Ears National Monument in Utah, and the Grand Canyon and KOFA Wildlife Refuge in Arizona. I would enthusiastically recommend this program to anyone looking for adventure on their gap semester.
