We had a great time rafting the Clear Creek Gold Rush route. Jackson our guide was great! He worked hard to make our trip great especially with the water being a little lower this time of season in spots. Plenty of drops and rapids for stage 2 and 3. I would highly recommend this company and trip and Jackson as your guide. We had ages 10 to 65 on the raft and everyone of us had a blast.

We recently took a trip to Idaho Springs and rafted during the creek. Shoestring was our guide and he was fantastic! Highly recommend

You guys didn’t book out river rafting excursion even though we paid in full for it. Pretty much ruined our trip.
