“My wife and her two friends from Massachusetts had a great time in the Lower Gorge today. They raved about the sights and the rapids and enjoyed the lessons of local history and geology learned from guide Dan as he took them down the river. Thanks for giving those Patriots a very special taste of New Mexico.”

“I would just like to say what a great time we had yesterday in the Box, and to let you know that John was a great guide. We now have some great memories from our trip. John kept us engaged during the calm parts of the trip with interesting facts about the canyon, and others who had tried and failed in their attempts to transverse the Box.
Lunch was a good time to meet up with the other rafts in our party and share some experiences, and we built some good cameraderie with them as we rejoiced with one another in our triumphs over a successful and safe run. I was initially anxious about what I had gotten into but have already shared my stories with my family and look forward to coming back next year.
Thanks for putting together such a well-run trip. Everything was as advertised and all we had to do was paddle like crazy. I'm sure that all three of the parties from Texas that ran the Box with us yesterday, will take a piece of New Mexico home with them.
Evidently you guys have a great bunch of guides who are all more than capable. It'll be hard next time to decided whether to ask for John again or go with anyone, seeing that they must all be good judging
by the three we met.”
