I really enjoyed the whole experience rafting desolation canyon. This trip is where I met the parents of my daughters partner and allowed us to really get to know each other. The canyon was incredible and the crew/guides did a great job. We also got to meet the photographers/media specialist on this trip and they proved to be as much of the crew as well as friends. Vlad, Mike, and Jef were incredibly knowledgeable about rafting, the canyon, and the environment. Anna and Kim really brought the whole trip together. I felt like everyone was part of our family now. When we departed it felt as though all of them should have been going home with us!
