The Golden Trout Workshop is the best kept secret and the best bargain in photography. You'll never be able to spend a week in the beautiful Sierra mountains, with wonderful food and company, for any less. You do have to be in reasonably good physical condition and be willing to use pit toilets and solar showers and sleep on a cot in a tent. You'll learn about B&W printing from Paul and Roy. If it wasn't worth it, this would not be my 6th year!
