The whole thing was amazing. The guides were perfect, funny, and knowlegeable. We visited in July and it had rained the day and night before, the river had swelled and was full of sediment which gave us a "50-50" shot at flipping for the 12 foot drop. This is an adrenaline river not for those looking for just sight seeing. The food at the end was capital D-elicious.Mike_G

We had a great time and did take a little swim. The guides were great and safety focused. We would definitely do this again.
