Yes, we capsized at sunshine falls location at around mile 2.7 of the approximately 7.51 mile trip in the Arkansas River based on my GPS watch. The rescue & recovery by another raft guided by the lead guide went flawlessly in seconds that seemed like eternity. We carried on with some minor scratches and bruises. My sincere thanks and salutation to the Raft Masters crew, guides, and all. Please do pay attention to the safety briefing while on the bus; they paid off for us! Thank you Raft Masters and also to the customers who applied what they were taught! I highly recommend Raft Masters and we will be back. Epic lifetime experience!

Our group of 4 adults took the Royal Gorge Half-Day trip. Our guide was Mike and we all had a great time! He provided great instruction, pointed out areas on the scenic route, and provided a great experience. I would definitely recommend this, and would love to do a full-day when back in Canon City! We did this as part of a package with Colorado Jeep Tours. Perfect day.

I went on the Royal Gorge rafting trip out of Canon City, it was a great time. The guide we had provided us excellent instructions. This experience was great, and I would not hesitate to take this trip again with Raft Masters in the future.
