Durango is a pretty special place and fun to tell visitors about because we do feel very lucky to be living here and being able to go rafting or mountain biking and sharing that with our friends and families. Thank you for the review!

As well, making sure everyone is safe and comfortable possible!! We heard Dillon was the best and well worth fight to get him as our guide!! Next time we are in town Dillon is the ONLY guide I want!!

5 - the number of times Dillon is mentioned by name. 4 - the number of times the word guide is used in this review. 3 - how many times the adjective best is used in this review. 1 - my first suspicion that Gordy might be a friend of Dillon's, just saying, not sure, could be. Hard telling, because Dillon sure has been getting a lot of reviews and when a guide is on their A game, well, best is the word to use. Either way, thank you for the review.
