We had a great time on our rafting trip! Our guide Destiny was great! Super friendly and knowledgeable. I was a little nervous going into the rafting as it was my first time, but it was so much fun, I will definitely be back if I ever make it back to Durango.

Absolutely incredible family rafting experience on the Lower Animas. Don is the MAN!!! He is a knowledgeable and engaging guide, and he made sure the kids had a blast. The rest of the Mild To Wild team was excellent as well. We would definitely do this one again.
