It was a wonderful day. We had a 10 year old, three teenagers and two adults and everyone loved the day. The rapids were fun but not too overwhelming. Our guide was a lot of fun but also we felt very safe.

Very fun trip with knowledgeable and fun guides. Water was great and gave us enough excitement to consider the Royal Gorge trip next time. We felt like the smaller company experience was more what we wanted and it did not disappoint. Also, with this company you are part of the "crew" and equally responsible for the success of the trip, maybe not equally but you are part of the team.

Our family had a great experience with Lost Paddle Rafting. We did the Big Horn Sheep Canyon and had a wonderful time. Our guides, Maddy and Tyler were great and made sure everyone from My 84 year old father to my 16 year old nephews had a great experience. I cant say enough good things about Lost Paddle.
