Our little girl was nervous about this adventure, but when it was over she was ready to go again! Our teenager was all smiles. Mick was our guide and he was fantastic. He was super friendly and knowledgeable, taught us well and was a great representative of this company. I highly recommend this trip for families, it was a 2hr run down the Animas and it was a great introduction to rafting for us. River was up after the rains, couldn't have asked for a better experience.
