We had a great white water rafting experience!! We appreciated the wet suits and jackets and layers - although decided by lunch was too much heat. Our guide, Ryan was awesome and very knowledgeable and professional. We were rafting at very end of their season so water was down some but we did have a series of good fun rapids water in last half of our trip!
Excellent Rafting experience
