We spent a week together exploring Durango and the attractions here. One of our favorite experiences was white water rafting with Mountain Waters. The staff was super communicative and helpful. We booked a moderate run with class 1-3 rapids, since we had a big range of ages (my Dad is 77 and we had a party of 10 with ages ranging down to my 10-y-o son). They advised that this would be best for our family, and they were correct. I'd love to come back and do some class 3-4 rapids now that we have had some experience. Our guide Hannah was knowledgeable and very kind. We had a great experience with the team. No complaints at all. Highly recommend.

When I come back to Colorado I will make another visit. The attentiveness of the hosts Bryan and Joanne immediately made you feel welcome. They had water, sparkling water, the kettle was going for tea and the ambiance embraced you with warmth. Bryan's showmanship and personality brought life to the show. I appreciated Joanne's thoughtfulness. She made sure that those of us who needed a chair had one. Thank you!! And of course there are the MAGNIFICENT chocolates! They melt in your mouth and you can taste the flavors as they explode in their grandeur! It was magical.

He helped us gear up, grant us a practice run, and was super knowledgeable about the terrain and history behind Via Ferrata. I was also reppin LEAGUE ONE VOLLEYBALL (LOVB), and this turned out to be one of the best adventures I have ever experienced. So much so, I ordered climbing gear and plan many more trips ahead! An emphatic thank you SJMG's for an unforgettable bucket list moment, and for fueling the inspiration to climb!

No one really seemed to know what was going on or how long their clinics were supposed to last and things kept changing. So they stuck me in another clinic, but it wasn't a climbing clinic, which is what I had paid for and wanted. One of the guides could've belayed me, but chose instead to stand around and watch the other Guide give the lesson on anchors. I would not use this company again for anything.

He's involved in a lot of local parts of Durango life and so the bike ride is more than just a bike ride -- you get lots of information on the history of the town and current events/interests.

We did just over 17 miles and I plan to come back at some point, hopefully for snowboarding lessons too.
