Hey Mike and Staff...
I have lived in Arizona my entire life. I have tubed on the lower salt many times. Last year i heard about whitewater rafting on the Salt, but I could not believe there was enough water to do that having only seen the lower end. So I drove up last year to see for myself and yes… you can raft! This weekend (march 28th), me and a friend and his sons came up for our first ride. WOW! It was so much fun. We decided that your ride is only as good as your guide…and Simon made our trip so much fun. He is very knowledgeable and had us doing fun things like spins that really added to the adventure. You were all very friendly, knowledgeable and kept everyone safe. Anyway, thanks again, and I can’t wait for trip number 2!
