Absolutely fantastic! Benji did a great job - best guide on the river! Enjoyed some swimming, and surfing Smelter rapid on July 27th.

Rode with Sean Monday.. The entire staff was energetic and positive made my impromptu trip so memorable. Sean saw an errant plastic bottle across the river and had us paddle across to retrieve it, really cares about the environment we all live in.Will definitely come back with some friends.

We did the half day on July 27 (kinda). Sam (aka Samantha) was our guide but Beth and Luke were along side to provide added entertainment. They do a wonderful job of making a newbie feel safe and have fun!
