    This outfitter earns consistent praise for their professionalism and responsiveness across multiple activities, from whitewater rafting and fly fishing to paddleboarding and historical tours. Guests repeatedly highlight how accommodating the team is with last-minute requests and custom group events, with staff members going out of their way to make things right when issues arise. The communication stands out as exceptionally smooth from initial booking through any needed adjustments. The guides clearly make the experience special. Names like Curtis, Sunshine, Trevor, Brady, Kirk, and Pat come up repeatedly, with reviewers noting their knowledge, patience with beginners, and ability to keep groups comfortable while having fun. Whether you're trying fly fishing for the first time or you're an experienced rafter, guides adapt well to different skill levels. The attention to details like proper outfitting and having equipment in all sizes shows thoughtfulness that doesn't go unnoticed. Repeat customers are common here, with several families and groups already planning their return trips.

    We really enjoyed the tour and the time we spent with Kirk. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable about the history of silver mining in Aspen, he also shared many stories and anecdotes about life at that time. We appreciated his great sense of humor and enthusiasm. Totally recommend the tour to anyone interested in Aspen and the storied history it holds. So glad this historical place has been preserved for all to enjoy.
