HMI Fall Trek

Before HMI, I had no backpacking experience. However, you don’t need experience to have a great time with HMI. Throughout this semester, I have gained so much knowledge and confidence in backpacking by hiking through such amazing places like the canyons of utah and Chile Patagonia. What is unique about HMI is the emphasis they put towards building intentional and inclusive communities. The instructors are very passionate about what they do and go above and beyond for their students. Participating in an HMI gap program is an unforgettable experience.
