“It was a great family adventure with great guides. We really enjoyed being allowed to get out of the raft and float a little bit. We loved the fact that we stopped to see the petroglyphs. We had a wonderful time and would love to do it again sometime.”
Rebecca S Preece ~ Kaysville, UT
“We liked being outdoors in the remote areas of the park in the beautiful environment around the Green & Yampa river area. Everything was great. Really enjoyed the stop to look at the pictographs & petroglyths before we got in the river. We were aware of the terrific rock art in Utah and were really glad to see it. ”
Jerry Troegle ~ Arlington, TX
“The guides were entertaining and educated about the surrounding geology. They were also able to do a few little "tricks" with our group - rock surfing, water fights, etc. They were very safety oriented. ”
Tonilyn Campbell ~ Eden, UT
