Hands down, the worst experience white water rafting that my group of friends ever had...and this was our third trip this summer. We made reservations through a travel company for a "paddle (hence, why would they give us paddles if it was a float?? We were not told this would be a "float") and saddle day trip". Upon arrival, we noticed the the life jackets were thrown on the ground and we were told to pick one out (extremely unprofessional) and we were handed helmets. Our bus guides were amazing and pretty much the only thing good about the trip. Your busses are filthy! When told about the history of Kremmling we were told to look out the window. Your windows were so dirty, people were standing up on the bus while moving in effort to see what Ian was talking about. Liability!
Now about our "float". We are three ladies in our 50s. We were placed in a boat with a four year old! I paddled 57 times during the entire trip. We made it clear that we wanted to jump off the cliff. Upon reaching the cliff via our raft, Max (? name ?) and Jarrod (we were told Jarrod was on our boat in effort to be trained) yelled at their friends "I didn't know there were going to be mermaids here!) and passed the cliff and went around the corner, banked the boat, and we sat there for 30-45 minutes waiting on the other boats to jump off the cliff.
During the wait, my friend got in the water that was about 1 foot deep. When getting out, Jarrod (who was not our guide) duked her despite the depth of the water and she was injured. We have photos of this.
Our guide (Max) jumped off the boat while we were waiting for 45 minutes. He should have NEVER left the boat as he was our guide.
Lastly, our raft was responsible for three kayaks as well as our raft. So, we went so slow in effort for Max to 'help' the kayakers. NOT SAFE!!!
