The true test of an outstanding travel company is how they respond to glitches in a trip. MRO could have easily cancelled our highly anticipated family vacation with everything that was happening during our weekend. But with fires raging around us and feared evacuations in the town that the company was based, Mountain River Outfitters never let go of their "can do" attitude. They adjusted our route, and actually improved it, by going way out of their way to make sure we had the best river ride ever. From the moment we met our guides, Heather, Allison, and Stephen, their enthusiasm removed any concerns we had about our new itinerary. The fun immediately began after we put in, and we were very well taken care for the entire two days. The food was exceptionally good, and even after Allison had set up our camp by herself in gale force winds, she was handing out appetizers soon after we landed, with a smile on her face. Heather and Stephen were outstanding guides, accommodating our family at all times. Their knowledge and respect of the river made us feel very safe, and they really know their way thru the rapids. We absolutely recommend this guide company, and we will absolutely be back!
