Thanks Huey for a great experience. I was really apprehensive to start. But ended up really enjoying it. Would highly recommend Big Creek Expeditions for Rafting. Don’t forget to ask for Huey to be your guide.

Our trip with Briggs was great. I am 61, husband 65, mom and companion 83. Briggs got us down the class 3 and 4 rapids with no harm and a great time. Beautiful and scenic. Take a change of clothes and enjoy the showers!! We were all wet and happy at the end. Staff very friendly.

We went yesterday and had a blast!! It was a perfect experience for beginners but still exciting. Our guide Huey did an awesome job at making sure we were safe and had a great time. Would definitely recommend. 5 stars.
