Dilan was the person who guided us all through this activity. He was knowledgeable and helpful. We initially thought we wouldn't be able to get good experience due to low water levels in Animas river but Dilan guided and made our experience awesome.

This was a bucket list item. What an amazing trip. Our guide Luke was very experienced and fun! Glad and Clara were wonderful! The food was really good. I would not change a thing. Gates of Ladore is very beautiful. Thank you Mild to Wild.
