Hualapai River Runners - Captains making dinner for two day trip

We did the 1 day river raft trip in the Grand Canyon, hike to travertine falls, lunch, rock jumping…read moreinto the Colorado River and helicopter ride out of the canyon! It was great! Don't hesitate to book this! Worth every penny. Note that if there are high winds helicopters won't fly, and you will get a $90 refund.

TWO DAY raft tour review (will be long, so I apologize in advance!). I noticed there weren't a lot…read moreof reviews on overnight (two day) rafting trip, so I wanted to show some pictures and give a good overview. My dad and I went on this trip We booked this trip just a few months ago, after finding this is the only rafting company that has just a two-day paddle rafting tour. All others were 4, 8, or more days. We found out that the Hualapai tribe has the only road that leads down to the bottom of the canyon that isn't at the very start of the canyon, or end of the canyon (where you end your ride). So you can essentially "jump" on the river mid-canyon and you raft 53 miles to the end of the canyon, where you exit. There is a one day tour done by this company that is NOT paddling, but just riding in a motorized boat. They go the whole 53 miles in one day. They start and end at the same place we did, we just stop halfway (around 32 miles) to sleep for the night. We obviously go slower because we have to paddle the first 13 miles. You will have rapids and paddle for the first 13 miles of the trip. Once you complete those 13 miles (about 7-8 rapids), you will tether up to a motorized boat and be towed the other 20 miles to camp (with no rapids). Trust me -- it's hot and exhausting, so you will be ready to be towed! Day two is being towed all day. No more paddling, no more rapids. I highly suggest getting a room the night before the trip at the lodge (on the website). But BEWARE the lodge is literally right beside a very active train track. So it's loud throughout the night with train horns. Do what you will with that. Ear plugs? Ambien? Whatever suits you. But it's definitely the best place to stay the night before. They have a nice little restaurant in the lodge to grab dinner. I really liked the stew and fry bread, but they have a nice selection of other items. The ride down to the river is only about an hour, and pretty fun. You go on a bus (no air conditioning, but windows open and it's early in the day, so it's not hot at all), and the drivers will inform you about things you see and the history of the Hualapai tribe who owns the land. Once you get to the river, they will assign you a boat and captain, and you will get your life jacket and helmet on (both required). You put your things in a big red dry bag about 3 foot tall. I would say you have one dry bag for every two ppl. You will hit a rapid right when you take off, which is pretty fun! Better learn how to row as a group quick. Ha! Our captains were Cody and Scott, both who were excellent at guiding our groups through the rapids. There is a supply boat that will follow with your dry bags, tables for dinner, food supplies, etc Not even one person fell off either of our boats on our trip . We had lots of big rapids, but great captains who guided us through safely! Remember there are only 7-8 total rapids, and they all happen in the first 13 miles. So enjoy the "crazy adventure" at the beginning, because you won't get more rapids the rest of the day or next day! It is HOT, so make sure to have your water bottle and ample sunscreen. And a hat to block the sun. We stopped at a beach (not a camping park, just a Sandy beach along the River) for the night. There is no electricity, no running water, and no porta potties. They do setup a "bathroom" on the beach that is a can with a toilet seat lid on it. Not luxurious, but it's setup in a private area, and gets the job done! You pick your campsite, and they provide the sleeping bags, pad for the bags to lay on, and tent (if you want it). It was BEAUTIFUL. And I am not an "outdoor" sleeper. But the stars and the sound of the river, and the breeze. It was wonderful! Make sure to stay up until about 10pm to see a SKY full of stars! They make an amazing dinner for you of steak, mashed potato and salad. Even more delicious after a tiring day!! Sodas are also available! The next morning, they will have eggs, bacon, coffee (bring your own cup), cereal, fruit --- a fantastic breakfast. You get towed about 4.5-5 hours that day (stopping for lunch), and then stop at the end of the canyon at the first exit road there is (53 miles later!). It's a lengthy ride back (2.5 hours), and you maybe in an air conditioned van, or on the bus. We got the vans today, so were pretty comfy. We booked another night at the lodge, and ate at the restaurant again, and had the stew!! Overall it was an amazing experience. Truly one you can't get anywhere else. Because the tribe owns this part of the river and the ONLY access road, it is the most unique way to see the bottom of the canyon. Cody, Scott and Dale were absolutely out of this world in knowledge and service . Very kind, helpful and taking care of every need (and taking lots of pictures!).

Great to find a place that could sell me a custom size soccer net, which fit perfectly and was of…read moregood quality. However, as part of the order I also ordered a ping pong table net and clamps. Unfortunately what they sent for clamps were not what was pictured in the product description for item TTC-14. That would have been no problem, however they then proceeded to give me the run around, saying the correct clamps were on backorder. When I followed up in August they said they would send the correct ones. When nothing arrived I followed up again in September and was told the part would be sent out "today." Unfortunately that was another unfulfilled commitment, hence I disputed the charge for the clamps through my Visa card provider. Amazing how the simple act of customer service and follow up can be so difficult.

I have had a terrible purchasing experience with West Coast Hitting Nets. I purchased the CG-1…read more10×10×10 golf hitting net and frame in April 2015. I used it from mid-April 2015 to mid November 2015. I spent $900 on this product. I stored the product in a box, in my garage over the winter. I re-assembled the net and frame in early May 2016, using the instruction CD and the anchors provided to hold the net down. The net blew over one time. When my sons and I tried to resurrect the net and frame, the piping warped and most of the support fittings went from a 90 degree angle to a 45 degree angle. One of the corner supports actually burst. All of those components were built in house and all of them, including the very anchors AND WELDS that were supposed to hold the unit down, were severely rusted. I contacted customer service to advise them of my dilemma, and to ask for remediation. I provided photos of all the components. Customer service explained that my one year warranty had expired. Additionally, they explained that I should have known the frame was going to rust due to the climate in my region (New York State). They even sent me the amount of annual precipitation where I live and I am not kidding. There was no such caveat mentioned on the website at the time of purchase or I would not have purchased the product in the first place. I asked West Coast Netting to provide me with a new frame that would not rust. The owner replied that he would provide an upgraded frame, but told me that it would rust at the points where the piping met the fitting! AND adding insult to injury, he told me that instead of charging me the extra $250 for the "fix", he would only charge me $205 plus shipping! This is a great example of a deceptive business practice where a vendor like West Coast Netting, would sell a $900 product to my shipping address, knowing it would rust AND expecting (blaming)me to know the same! This defies all logic, and the absence of any caveat, (oh, by the way, the product that you are purchasing will rust)on their website is deplorable. I would advise looking elsewhere if you are looking to buy a product and be expected by the West Coast Netting to magically know it was going to fail. Nice. $900.
