I don't think we could have asked for a better first white water rafting experience. My boyfriend and I signed up for the Browns Canyon Half Day trip. Our guide was Gatlin, and as a bonus, we also had Jeff tag along. A "most excellent" duo.
Gatlin was very knowledgeable and led our crew safely down the river, avoiding rocks and probably worst of all, other people.
We also had a gentleman on our trip who used to be a guide (shout-out to Steve and his lovely wife, Nadine). Not only did we get to take in fun rock formations and paddle down the river, we got to hear a lot of amazing travel and guide stories.
It's the kind of experience that sets you spinning, both figuratively and literally. It feels almost painful to return to the drudgery of the 9-5 office life in the flat Midwest after such an experience. But I digress. Amazing job guys!
