Julio is the BEST. We talked a lot about rafting, history, and life. And we also nicknamed him Julio the cool guy. He talked about the boot beer and many other traditions. He also made me like water sports and changed my not easily changed opinion. All in all, everything was amazing and insanely funny. I would do it again many times. (P.S. Joe should drink two boot beers because of how hysterical those pictures were. And out of the most used boots.)

Dylan was a great guide as we made our way down the Animas river. He kept us in the channel and we had an awesome time. Would do this again and make sure we get Dylan as our raft master.
