Our Favorite Travelers
We had a ball and I would highly recommend EME
We did two rafting trips last week with Elk Mountain and they were brilliant!! Carter took us on the Upper Roaring Fork, he was great fun and taught us a lot about the river (ask him about the albino gophers). We did Slaughterhouse the following week with Curtis, who was incredibly skilled and experienced.
They are a small outfit so the trips feel very personalized and tailored, with beers, chips and photos all included, even during locals week!
Love Elk Mtn Expeditions
We have done 5 rafting trips (class III – V) with them over two years, and all of them have been wonderful. The guides are kind, fun, and VERY good. We have brought along our older parents on class III, and the guides did a wonderful job to ensure they felt safe and secure while enjoying rafting for the first time.
We had an absolute blast on Slaughterhouse Falls
Our guide was Curtis and he did a great job bringing the stoke on some amazing Class 4 rapids. The route was a good balance of rapids and moments to rest but didn’t have long stretches of slow sections like I’ve had before on other white water rafting experiences. Before we were even done we were talking about coming back again next summer!
