HMI Gap

If you want to learn some basic hard skills (how to pack a pack, plan a ration, set up a tent) while also learning soft skills (giving and receiving feedback, how to be a good leader, how to manage conflict), then this program is for you. We talked a lot about how this program compared to NOLS, and I feel like this was more chill in a good way. The instructors were great and ready to help anyone having a tough time. Sometimes the safety procedures felt stifling, but we gained more independence as the program progressed.
