Mattie was a great guide and was great with the kids. We felt safe and had a relaxing ride down the river. We would have liked a little more "white water" action but we will do that the next time. We saw some beautiful cranes along the river and one in flight. That was special! Some cows were wading at one spot and we got a chance to do a little swimming in a shallow pool. Thanks, we will be back the next time we come to Colorado!

Leyland was personable and understood the needs of my young children and didn’t make them feel like they were any less of importance on the trip. The crew recommended a trip that was just right for our abilities. We had a GREAT day on the river!
