GREAT destination!!! Worth the trip from literally ANYWHERE. Even the food was very good, considering everything has to be shipped in, turned around VERY QUICKLY amd please a broad range of visitors. The staff we interacted with were extremely helpful, informative and seemed to be enjoying themselves, which is always a bonus. My main recommendation is to practice using paper maps a few times before visiting because much of the time you only have a GPS signal, no wireless / wifi / internet, so even dedicated trails apps by themselves don't give you a great feel for where you are, where you wanna go and how to get there. The best approach I found was to track how far I'd traveled via the trails app or Google maps, refer back to the paper maps and triangulate from there...
