Jake made the entire experience! He was super knowledgeable about rafting and eliminated any fear - even as we approached class 4 rapids. The scenery is amazing and the rapids from 2-4 were soooo much fun! We’d definitely do it again.
Excellent Experience

Shep was a great guide, had a fantastic time! Just don't forget a dry set of clothes to change into afterword, it's a pretty chilly ride back.
Great raft trip!

Went on the 4 hour trip solo and had a great time. The guide never lost control of the situation and was knowledgeable on the history of the area as well. Will definitely come back some time.
