Despite it being the last trip of the season due to low water we still had a lot of fun! No complaints about the company or our guide (Dillan) just that the water was low, which was outside their control. They tried to make up for it by letting us play in the what water park a bit which my children loved. I had my 7 and 8 year old with me and it was a great introduction to white water rafting that hopefully they will be excited to do again. We wished we could have gone longer but the water was just too low. So if you are wanting to go, do not until end of August! We would love to come earlier in the season and do it again.

One of the great ironies of whitewater rafting is that the majority of people are on vacation and travelling in July and August when river levels are past their peak. Of course it is still fun despite the low water because our guides are awesome and just being on a river in beautiful Colorado is always worthwhile! It also gives little kids and those who aren't too sure a chance to experience rafting when it is safe and appropriate. Thank you for the great review and good advice!

We had such an amazing time on our rafting trip, all thanks to Jesse who was a great guide! The views throughout the trip are beautiful! We would most definitely book here again and can’t wait to come when the water levels are higher!

At high water we are thankful for our guides and their skill to navigate the river. At low water, we are thankful for our guides creating a beautiful and fun adventure. At all water levels, we are thankful for our guests who write us reviews!

The river was very low in August BUT our guide, Brenna, did everything to make sure we had a fantastic experience. It was so much fun. All of the guides did a great job making sure everyone was safe and had a fun adventure. Highly recommend this company.
