The upper Animas was a thrilling and beautiful experience. Don was a great guide who was helpful, friendly and had a passion for being a river guide.

We had a fantastic tour guided by Haydn C. who made sure we had a safe and entertaining morning! This was our 7-year-olds first experience with rafting rapids and it did not disappoint! He had a blast and so did we, despite it being milder rapids than our past rafting experiences. Perfect for families, newbies and the experienced rafter who just wants some fun in the sun!
