We had such a fun day on the river!! There was a mudslide that prevented the put in at the regular area and this caused the trip to start maybe 6-7 miles further behind the normal put in, this made for such a fun experience for all of us and honestly added to our day. The first half was floating, some swimming, and lunch before we hit the bulk of the rapids. Our guides Bryan and Emilyana were amazing, hilarious, and gave us the most fun on the river. Our group is already talking about coming back (maybe before the end of the season and next spring) and doing it again!
