No Barriers Warriors, an offshoot of the Veterans organization No Barriers USA, will open an application period to launch its 2023 program season on February 1.
In 2023, No Barriers Warriors will have several programs for Veterans with disabilities: basecamp experiences in Red Feather, Colorado, and backcountry expeditions in the northern Colorado Rockies and the Smoky Mountains of western North Carolina.
No Barriers Warrior programs help Veterans with service-connected disabilities to redefine their identity, purpose and community as they face past and present challenges. The programs run by No Barriers Warriors challenge Veterans to critically think about where they are in life, where they want to be and how to get there. The backcountry expeditions and basecamp experiences give them new tools, strategies and the drive to overcome the barriers that are holding them back, as well as a new support team that will be with them throughout the program and beyond.
The basecamp experiences are “as accessible as possible”
Each expedition or basecamp experience begins at Phase 1: two online meetings to introduce Veterans to their new teammates and a review of the basics of No Barriers Life.
Phase 2 consists of the basecamp experience or backcountry expedition. For basecamps, Veterans stay at the No Barriers mountain campus and participate in activities like hiking, rock climbing, fly-fishing, the challenge course and whitewater rafting.
“We’ve made the basecamp experience as accessible as possible,” says Michael Smith, the program manager of No Barriers Warriors and a Veteran of the post-9/11 conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The backcountry expeditions are more physically demanding backpacking trips that cover 12 miles over three to four days. They take place in the wilderness far off the beaten path and require Veterans to push themselves and rely on their team to complete intense, multi-day backcountry missions. Finally, the Veterans can participate in a Phase 3, which teams Veterans with volunteer coaches who assist them in continuing their journey of change.
The 2023 program season features three basecamp experiences: July 6 to 12, August 1 to 5 and September 6 to 10. The Rocky Mountain Backcountry Expeditions will be held July 13 to 18 and July 24 to 29, and the Smoky Mountains Backcountry Expeditions are scheduled for September 6 to 10, September 13 to 17, September 20 to 24, September 27 to October 1, October 4 to 8 and October 11 to 15. Applications will be available on the No Barriers Warriors website beginning February 1.
Veterans and anyone else with questions can contact No Barriers Warriors through its website. You can also email Warriors@nobarriersusa.org or mike.smith@nobarriersusa.org or call 970-484-3633.

I am interested in the no barriers program. Please call me or email me. I look forward to our discussion.
I’m interested in this experience. I have a service-connected disability rating and would like to enjoy something like this since it sounds like what I used to be able to do pre-military.
Interested in applying, I’m service connected.
I am interested in the Rocky Mountain excursions.
I don’t understand why everyone is posting your percentages of Disability, when there is actually an application you have to fill out. Even though I appreciate all of you, I was just wondering if that is something we were suppose to do, if interested in doing this? I will say I am a US Army Vet.
[Editor: Posting a comment here has zero bearing on an applicant’s participation or selection.]
I’m a Vietnam Vet, 100% service connected disability, and interested in both Base Camp Experiences and Smoky Mountains Backcountry Expeditions.

70% Service disabilty. Anything outdoors I love, Never flew fished tho and can’t swim haha. Would like to visit such places.
Nichole, veterans like you make other veterans miserable with your judgement, negativity, and obvious lack of any real experiences. Also your the only one winning, and about other veterans. Why are you even on the comment section complaining about the comments?
Although there’s a national egg shortage, there’s never a shortage of Nicholes who live for, and seek out, every opportunity to kick a man in the balls.
I served as a crew member with the USAF’s 6ACCS, which flew in support of the Navy’s North Atlantic Fleet. I am a veteran in good standing, and recently retired from the private sector. I am a 40+ year endurance athlete (cyclist and ultra-marathoner) and remain in very good physical condition. That said, if I can be of service to your group, please let me know. I reside in Richmond, VA, and have a fairly open schedule and ability to travel.

100% Service connected ARMY veteran I’d really like to get out doors to the wild again. Its been over 20yrs now since my OIF 1 +OEF 1 deployment . Speed and Power Rock of the Marne 19k 77F
I am a veteran of the marine Corp can I help I have vacation time coming and I would like to help I don’t have much money but I feel driven to help coach
Why do people come to comment on something when they aren’t in the least bit interested and gum up the page with depressing stories, I’ve never seen such a bigger group of winers. We ALL have issues but everyone is acting like their is worse than everyone else’s. That’s subjective, this is clearly a program for people who are interested, if you are ask for more info if not move it along and find something suitable for your needs. This is one reason I hate doing veteran focused programs the comment section is literally why it is miserable with other veterans around.
Please include me! I am interested in the Smoky Mountains Backcountry Expeditions in Sep/Oct 2023. Is there a limit to the disability rating of participants? I am a Gulf War veteran!

Thank You
If I’m on dialysis could I do this, I do at home pararenal over night for 9 hours.
I am a Viet Nam veteran who is 100% disabled with PTSD I would like to be a part of this program in the Smoky Mountains. I feel I would benifit being around other veterans with the same issues. I would like to be considered for the program.
I would like to participate in this program! I’m a Vietnam Vet @ 74 and it seems like a lot of moving parts for this to come together. Looks fantastic. I will be signing up on February 1st
This makes me very anxious that we do not have a larger and more robust program for these types of MUCH NEEDED outlets for our Veterans. I am 100% P&T from California and I would love to engage with more challenging disabilities b/c these are the folks that need more help and these are Vets that need this the most, I cannot
imagine being cooped up in a situation where all you want is blue sky, nature and a team with you. Everyone misses their team, I’m no different. Wheel chairs shouldn’t be a problem in every outing. We need other veterans to bolster this outreach and get more Vets out there as much as possible to volunteer to close the gap and get the challenges done for some of these highly deserving yet severely immobile veterans who gave their all. As a Combat Medic I volunteer to help b/c my outing is about
team more than nature, I have a lot of opportunity to get out and recreate so I am willing to do what I can to help others do the same.
Is there something available for a veteran who uses a power scooter to be mobile? I’m a 100% VA Comp service connected disabled Vietnam Veteran. I use a CPAP at night.

Can you get the VA to fund more expeditions like this one? I’d go four times a year.
I’m 80% disabled service connected. would love to try this. Is there any cost to me?
I want to do this so bad!!!
Sounds great I would love to participate.100% disabled and would the experience instead just watching tv.
can this be done by someone in a wheelchair?
John:
Have you ever heard of the of the “grit freedom chair” ? I just found out about it and it sounds fantastic. It is a manual all-terrain wheelchair that improves quality of life. It is available to purchase through VA contract as “recreational sports equipment”. If you qualify through the VA at no cost to the veteran. I would suggest you contact the company at info@gogrit,us. The company will assist your VA acquisition if you have any questions. I hope this information helps you.
I am a Vietnam veteran with 100% disability for cancer and more health conditions. Good luck with everything in your life.

I am 100% Combat Connected Vietnam Vet. I’ll be more than happy to get out of this Recliner and do something other than Television all day.t
Good Morning,
I am so interested. Most times, it takes a veteran to know a veteran. I would love to bond with nature and with fellow service members! Even though I have some physically debilitating issues with my knees and chronic pain in my back, this program will be excellent motivation that makes me wanna keep going and never give up. Count me in all the way!!!
This sounds amazing. I would love to do something like this. I will definitely check it out and see if the time periods work for me. I work full-time and have my kids 50% of the time, or soon will, since me and my spouse are finalizing our divorce. I am service connected 60%. If I can make this work, I could really use a little time away and camaraderie right now.
Hi, I’m a 100% disabled veteran and I just discovered this group. I’m very very interested in learning more. I have not been able to do the things that I love because of my disabilities, I would love the opportunity to push myself and see what my abilities are. I love the outdoors and I believe this is something that can help me reconnect in many ways.
Sincerely,
Michael Hackney
There is a program “Fishing for Vets” that I reached out to 3 different years trying to go fishing. The guy running the program promised to take me fishing, then pawned me off on someone that was closer that blew me off. Then there is “Heat for Hero’s that is suppose to help with utilities or upgrade a furnace. Here I sit in my cold drafty house in my long underwear freezing my back half off while I face disconnection of my utilities. I’m so tired of fake veterans programs
how much does this cost
I live in southern Arizona and would ne instead in the Coloratexperience
I would love to participate in this experience.
Can I qualify for theses events w 80% service connected disability?
This brought tears to my eyes reading the description, it sounds like something I so need in my life as I’m sure many do. Good luck to all!!
Same, Wendy!! My eyes teared and my heart swelled! What an AMAZING program and I’m so thrilled to learn about this (and hope to participate!)!
I’m not sure if I am the the type of veteran 100% disabled that I should be taking the place another vet who needs this type of therapy. PTSD, One eye chronic pain, knee replacement, allergies, no smell or taste, Major sleep disorders, mentally disoriented at times, just to name a few of my disorders. The biggest barrier would be my age of 79+. Maybe I could be of help in some fashion at camp or ?. Yea or Nea works for me as I’m used to it.
Respectfully
Is it free?
Hello Mike.I am very interested in participating in one of your programs. I am a disabled veteran and suffer with chronic pain. What are the costs associated with participating in one of the programs. Is this funded by the VA ? What about transportation etc ?Please let me know all the details. Thank you kindly.
Hi, this is the 1st time I ever heard of this program. I am 100% SC disabled and suffer with a multitude of medical issues. I am able to ambulate short distances but normally would use an electric wheelchair. This is only one of my problems, but my question is would this keep me from entering into your program. If you need more information on my medical issues please let me know and I will inform of all. Hope to hear from you soon.
This makes no sense..
Disabled vet’s who have done enough pushing through.. getting dragged out into the mountains. GEE THANKS.. really smart.. : (
You are taking up valuable space for interested veterans with disabilities. If you aren’t don’t participate, we deal with enough crap without having to listen to Debbie downer. Just scroll on by next time and spare us your comments
I want to participate,thanks.?
Nice program,
No Barriers.
I think there are far more deserving that could use this program
I am 80% disabled mainly respiratory issues and other conditions.
I will pass it along to other Veterans.
Thank you
Carlos Ortegon.
I am looking forward to applying, 1Feb is my birthday! I am 21 yrs Nam 100% disability.
I am Walter F Wagner USAF Specality Code 204 Combat Intelligence (Served June 1972 through June 1978) Honorably Discharged.
How I wish I could join all of you, except I suffer from Severe Irreversible Respiratory Disease (COPD with Extreme Emphysema) and Complicated Nerve Damage at the Base of my Spine, the VA denied my claim for 100% Disability instead awarding me only 10% for hearing loss. Typical Government thinking they still authorized surgery at Orthopedic Surgical Center attached to Swedish Medical Center where underwent both Right then Left Total Knee Replacement Surgeries and later to correct nerve damage to my lower left hand an elbow
What I need is a Lung transplant, so I can breath. I seriously wish I could breath, walk and to join my fellow brethren, unfortunately I would only be a hinderance an I know it
Would appreciate it if someone could text me some pics from this Rocky Mountain Adventure
I would love to experience opportunities with other veterans who has disabilities that there will never be a cure for. I received a commitment that what I said , that I’ve said before, but I don’t think so. If you are going to sh-t us veteran’s down like that, then you shouldn’t post anything
I wiil love to help on this trip.
Hi my name is Steve Dickinson, and I love to see the effort you Vets, are putting forward to help other Vets , and I am interested in what you guys are doing.
This sounds great minus the fact it’s not for disabled vets who use scooters due to limited mobility. Nothing offered is for a vet who has to rely on a walker or crutches in order to be vertical :However:. It sounds like a wonderful program. Even though I can’t participate if there’s anything I can do to help as encouragement I’d love to.
Do u have a program for disabled vets before 911
We’re the forgotten ones – still young (as in era served), but not young enough to be eligible for many new/improved benefits. For instance, transferring education benefits to our kids – my husband lost his GI Bill because he couldn’t use it within the time they limit you to and we didn’t have a child to whom we could transfer the benefit. All these limits don’t account for many scenarios – earned benefits shouldn’t have an expiration date.
I could not walk yet I cycled around the USA on a recumbent trike. I am a US Marine, can’t is not a word I use.
I’ve been banned but my journals are still there. Homeless America I’ve seen it all, what works what does not work. Refugees of economic war.
A poet and a prophet I write songs that piss of the rulers.
Sounds interesting. i think i would like to participate,
My name is Tim Chapman (Cave Man) I am 100% serviced connected. I have a TBI from a hard hit on the right back side of my head. It seams like it is getting worse as I get older. I would love to go on one of those trips. I would like to learn more about myself. An also the other soldiers.
I’ve literally got tears in my eyes reading about the No Barriers Warriors and want to sign up yesterday! I’m hoping down the road this will expand to more regions so we have this opportunity in our own backyards. I’m 70% and hike and mountain bike, and always find myself having to explain my conditions and over compensate on group rides/hikes or having to decline group opportunities because of my physical challenges. I not only want to participate with my brethren, but I hope to learn to from the leaders so I can in turn do the same for others!
This sounds amazing. Can’t wait to fill out an application: I will not have internet access until 5 Feb. ugh
I’m a disabled veteran on a fix income can’t afford to go sounds like a great place to go and get your head together.
I am a Viet Nam veteran and I myself would like to volunteer to help others with disabilities to get though there problems, I am 70 years old and I hunt and fish all the time I also build rat rods and work on other projects . If you need any assistance in any way please let me know. I would love to help out on an excursion with you guys. I know how to survive in a n out door environment. Montana fish and game and animal control from Helena Montana call me if they have to put an animal down so please call me and let me know if you can use my help
I am also Severely Damaged, so long trips are not feasible without some kind of short 2 day trips to assess my Severe Pain, Physical Limitations, Problems, Mobility etc.. Do you have a Program for that ?
I am 100% VA Comp Disabled.
Sounds nice and relaxing
What a great way to help and celebrate Veterans!
Sign me up!!!

Very interested in the program. I do have some service related issues. I hope to strengthen my coping skills further.
Hi mike my name is David and I’m from the gulf war era serving in desert shield/storm currently at 90% for Ptsd,cervical and lumbar spine issues and nerve damage (chronic pain). I’m interested in your program
I am very interested possibly can my spouse come with me I am service connected as well army vet.

What are the qualifications for this program? I’m a 100% service-connected, non-combat Army veteran.
I am a 100% total and permanent disabled veteran. I was wounded in combat in Vietnam in Sept. 1969. I too suffered with many of the maladies associated with combat. PTSD, diabetes neuropathy, and other things. I had my left leg amputated BTK and had many setbacks because of infections. I just underwent my 14th surgery on my ankles from shrapnel wounds. I have anticipated receiving a prosthesis but I can not due to the setbacks. Is there any programs for those of us wheelchair bound. Thsnks
Viet nam disabled vet, ( 100% service connected) limited mobility , trouble breathing, heart, used to bow hunt Colorado , 70s miss it terribly. Can’t tell you how much this would mean to me…..maybe help stop the nightmares
Our organization, WARRIORS TREK, established by Retired Chief Master Sgt. and a Disabled Veteran , enables, encourages
other Disabled Veterans to take
wilderness adventures.
Our goal is to perpetuate the comradeship among our peers,
develop strength and endurance for body and mind. Let nature heal the wounds of war.
Sounds like a great program ! Keep up the great work!
Although it sounds like a physical adventure i would guess the beauty of the landscape and the time spent along with mental reward would be something the veterans will cherish thru out the rest of there life.
I’d like more information about these events please send more info
This program does not seem designed for veterans with physical disabilities. It appears physically demanding, and only veterans with excellent physical can participate. It is misleading. It does not appear as accessible as described
My only disability is hearing loss. Does this qualify for the program?
I am interested in attending one of your events. I have a question, I am currently dealing with PTSD (100% Rating) and have been assigned a service dog to help in public places. I am extremely active solo hiking/camping in the backcountry of Montana with with my service dog. If accepted would I be able to bring him with me.
I am a Vet with a 50% disablity and spent 21 year in the Army,I was in Dessert Storm in 1990 t0 1991 and I was in Enduring Freedom in 2002 to 2003 I would love the base camp experience.
I have AO Parkinsons and can’t walk. I am wheelchair bound. Can I go?
I’m very interested the expedition, and I need to challenge myself accomplish things I haven’t done in many years
I am interested and would love more information. I have a service connected disability at 60%. I would love to try to push myself to do this.
As a disabled vet I also have limitations and boundaries and age factor 62. The idea of this adventure sounds amazing and great and my head and my heart say go ahead but my body says I’m not going too.
Sounds like one must be physically capable to compete and complete!
I’m 70% TDIU and I’m interested in your programs please feel free to reach out to me whenever possible thx.. my physical limitations are from a tear in my knee ligament, however I’ve been provided with a knee brace which helps significantly “ thx in advance
I have a 50% disability. Would I be eligible to participate%
I’m also interested but I have trouble walking any sort of distance. I’m a diabetic and I have a service dog who alerts me when my blood sugars dropped to low. I am a Type 2 diabetic. Along with a lot of other health issues.
I can use it…
Mike:
I’m a Viet Nam era veteran and 90% disabled veteran, I also suffer from PTSD and pain from arthritis and wounds from my service time. I have trouble sleeping an entire night without bad memories from my service time, I believe I would benefit greatly from this program if it’s not to demanding physically. I still walk 2 miles a day and drive veterans to and from the VA for appointments for the DAV. I believe I will apply for this program
I would love the experience. I am 100% disabled, with very limited movement I can still walk, but not as much as I use to. I had a hip replacement, and when walking long distances my knees are in severe pain, and now my arthritis is bad. The challenge would be great. I don’t know how far I would get. I do know it would lift my spirit.
Looks like great fun, going rural and into the wild, once again being one with nature and living based upon needs alone …
… until I saw photos of those carrying ~500lb backpacks.
Good publication
I’m a service-connected Vietnam Veteran that’s wheelchair bound. Other than that I’m in great shape. I’m 74 years young 6’3”with two strong arms and a powerful will to stay active as long as I live. I also have severe ptsd under a psychiatrist care. I’ve always tried to accomplish everything I started and finish first if I can. I live in the deep country in S.C. and love to fish and dear hunt among other things. I miss being around other veterans that have seen war up front and personal. I would love to be a part of one more journey with brothers that will have my six again. Does my disability disqualify me?
I’m interested but like christopher orchad i also deal with severe pain, the most traveling i do is from my bed to the couch but it would be nice to get out and do something for once other than being stuck in the house. I have two mechanical implants, nerve stimulator and pain pump. i am 90% P&T unemployable.
Iam a disabled veteran
I am interested in your group. I have been to Bryson City N.C. twice in the early 2000s and fell in love with it. I would like to know more about this program for veterans. I am a veteran of the Airforce and retired do to a health issuse four years ago.
I’m a vet with a 90% disability and interested in participating in these events, please let me know where to apply for and if there’s any charges for participating in these activities
I am very interested in this program and qould like to participate. Can you send me an application and mor information?
I’m a 100% Disabled Vietnam Veteran and my wife is my 100% caregiver, do you have any programs that we could attend?
I’m also interested but hesitant due to my current limitations, I have severe chronic pain, and I’m still waiting for some procedures to help with past unaddressed spinal injuries ect. I’m service Connected (currently 80%) I haven’t been able to do much of anything in some time but the pain team and a few associated providers are working with me to try to help me function without such severe limitations. I’d appreciate more information as this is the kind of thing I think I can greatly benefit from. Thank You and God Bless ??
Hi Christopher, please reach out to me via email and we can discuss ways in which you might be able to participate in one of our programs.
[Editor: Mike listed his email as mike.smith@nobarriersusa.org. The email field is not visible to the public.]
Sir, have you attempted to request TDIU?
WOW!! This sound great. I wanted to ask just a few question, my son served in Afghanistan and returned home diagnosed with 11 service related issues. He has PTSD. Nightmare syndrome.
1. Can he sigh up?
and if he has an issue while there
2. will he be sent home? He is not violent, he just goes back in time. He was a medic in the Army. His father CW3 died on active duty.
3. Where does everyone
Meet at?
4. Is there a fee
requirement?
5. Can the service member
call someone to explain
all the reasons to be a
part of this GREAT time
he will have?
Hi Diane, please contact me by email (in the article) to discuss your son’s situation. He sounds exactly like the kind of veteran we are looking for.

If this is affiliated with government Veterans Administration what are CO V ID requirements?
Very interested service connected disabled US Navy corpsman 1st Marine division
Hi Danny, please apply on our website once applications open on February 1, 2023.
I was a homeless veteran up until this last December. Thanks to the Endeavors agency and the homeless outreach team(Ashley and Maddie) I am now in an apartment and soon will be in the HUD/VASH PROGRAM. I’m currently in recovery from alcoholism and work with behavioral health to maintain a better way in regards to mental health. I’m 70% service connected, but aside from the financial aspect of that I find myself searching for more in order to keep busy. I am interested in all of some programs to help occupy my mind and still stay physically fit and well.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am an adventurealist.
Thank you
Robert, please reach out to me at the email address in the article. Mike
Hi Robert, my name is Feliece, and work for Endeavors. I’m happy to hear that we were able to serve your needs. We’d love to hear and share your story, and reward Ashley and Maddie for a job well done! I’m a Veteran as well, so I will always have a very special spot in my heart for my sisters and brothers in arms. Let’s connect!
Would like more information about what your business is towards disabled veterans
Is this also for physically disabled veterans?
I am not sure how hiking activities will work for those of us the VA has left for dead.
Yet another VA scam that does nothing fir the most physically disabled.
I know how you feel as the VA Denys ALL Opioid Pain Medications for Physically Damaged Disabled Veterans, to allow & Facilitate a Damaged Veterans Mobility & Quality of Life we need. You have to get an Outside Doctor for Pain Meds if you can find one.
We do work with many physically disabled Veterans. Please reach out to me at the email address in the article to discuss more.
I am a Disabled Veteran and have 30-50 issues wrong with me I take 30-50 pills a day. I am very interested in your programs
I am service connected with 80% PTSD, over the years I’ve gained weight and I am 54 years old not sure I can do rock climbing and all that but it could use an opportunity to see and be with others who suffer the same thing and have disabilities. This is something that I would be very interested in that what worries me as my physical condition
