We were very excited to go white water rafting and Mild to Wild met every expectation. Chase was our guide and he did awesome! He was great at maneuvering us through the river and keeping us safe.

We had a group of women's motorcyclists who were in the area on a motorcycle camp out and decided to add a raft adventure. Our group was split up into a raft of 8, raft of 7 and raft of 4, mixed in with other folks. We had an absolute blast!!! Our guide was Don. He was fun, adventurous and knowledgeable about the history of the area. Great guides make all the difference! There were a few Class 2 and one Class 3 rapids, which made it just exciting enough. We will be back for even greater rapids next time!!

So much fun we tried to steal our guide Robbie LOL! PLEASE do yourself a favor and book a rafting trip! We had so much fun with our guide, the river, and the rest of the Mild to Wild team. It was a giant adventure from start to finish! We had 3 grandparents, 5 adults, and 2 kids (6 and 7) and the route we took was a perfect blend of fun rapids but safe for everyone. You get a little bit of wild CO adventure, gorgeous scenery, and a super fun guide! Worth every penny! YES get the pictures! And obviously, request Robbie if you can!!
