Celebrating 25 years of connecting friends & family through nature & adventure!
Mild to Wild Rafting & Jeep Tours have been the southwest’s adventure and whitewater experts for over 25 years. Started by Molly & Alex Mickel, Mild to Wild has grown from a small booth in downtown Durango, to running trips all over Arizona, Utah, & Colorado. With the addition of Adventure Bound USA in 2018, Mild to Wild Rafting & Jeep Tours expanded to open an office in Moab, UT and run multi-day trips on legendary river sections such as Gates of Lodore, Yampa, Desolation Canyon, & Cataract Canyon. Mild to Wild is thrilled to carry on the nearly 70 year legacy of Adventure Bound River Expeditions.
Our Mission:
To enrich your life with an escape in the outdoors creating a deeper connection with nature, family, and new friends.
What We Believe In
Environment
The environment is our lifeline. We embrace Leave-No-Trace, educate others about it on our trips, and strive to reduce our footprint. We put hours into maintaining and cleaning our river ways and trails. Our community is part of our environment. We donate thousands to local non-profits each year.
Excellence in Guests Services
Our guests are our most important stakeholders. We strive to exceed their expectations from the first point of contact with the goodbye at the end of their experience with us.
Integrity
Be real. Be authentic. Be transparent. Be fair. We uphold the highest standards of integrity in all of our actions. Integrity is at the root of all our decision making.
Team Member Growth
Our team is part of our family. We value them, encourage their development, and reward their performance. Our success is dependent upon the collective energy, intelligence, and contributions of all of our Team Members. We provide pathways for advancement and invest in our team to invest in Mild to Wild’s future.
Family
We, Molly and Alex Mickel, are a family, the Mild to Wild team is our family, and our goal is to bring you into our Mild to Wild family forever by exceeding their expectations with excellence in guest services.
Accountability
If it is to be, it’s up to me. We are personally accountable for delivering on our commitments. It’s amazing how much we can achieve when we don’t care who gets the credit.
Company Culture:
Family! We are a family and Mild to Wild Rafting & Jeep Tours is a family! As a company, we put people first. We work as a team to create a supportive, caring environment where our staff can reach their full potential and, in turn, create the best possible guest experience. We inspire our staff by the serenity of the rivers and mountains so they will enjoy sharing these natural treasures with others as much as we do. And, we aim to inspire each and every guest with the magic of our mild, intermediate and wild adventures in a raft, inflatable kayak, stand-up paddleboard, jeep tour and/or Mesa Verde tour. Join our family for an adventure!
