Very relaxing ride down the river. Was a lot more tame than I expected because there had not been a lot of rain for a while before we arrived but not the fault of Big Creek. Our family of 10 included my children and grandchildren so our group ranged in age from 7 to 70. Our guide was very quiet, not what we expected.

Really enjoyed our trip. We had a little excitement when one of our rafts got caught on a rock but the guys from all the rafts went into full swing and got them off.
