sun review
This trip was definitely a highlight of our holiday! We met great people in our group and the guides were committed, enthusiastic and professional. The river was sometimes wild and sometimes gentle, sleeping under the stars a wonderful experience! Flying back to Moab with the small plane was the perfect end to a perfect rafting/camping experience!
