The All-Outdoors Whitewater Rafting California River Blog

This feedback about guide Noah Nash and the Cherry Creek Crew came from Deanna T. I quote Deanna here, “It’s long, but I think it’s worth the read.”

I enjoyed yet another phenomenal trip with AO, this time being Cherry Creek. The Creek guides are truly top notch in the industry. The years of experience behind their belts is quite apparent in their professional guiding style, with focus being on the safety of their guests so that all can enjoy a superb time down the river. They supplement the guests’ positive experience with their wonderful senses of humor and interesting tidbits of information about the natural and geological features of the local area.

Several years ago, I had a horrifying experience in rafting with another (well-known) rafting company. As a result of being on a boat with an unprofessional guide whose last concern was the safety of his guests, came home with a fractured shin, deep tissue contusions, and a newly-formed fear of rivers and rafting. I would never raft with that company again, based solely upon that experience. I lost faith in them and would never raft with them again. I have discouraged others from rafting with them as well.

This is when I stumbled upon AO one day while surfing the net. I researched the company, and after discovering a plethora of positive things about them, decided to revisit rafting again. The high skill set and conservatism the AO guides display over and over again helped me overcome my fear of rafting and restored my confidence in rafting guides. Your company is, hands-down, the creme-de-la-creme of the rafting industry. You should be proud of such a team of gifted men and women. Thank you!”

I also wanted to say a few words about Noah Nash. Please share this with Gregg and Scott. Although all your guides are incredibly talented, Noah is, in my opinion, the best of the best. And in speaking with some other fellow guests over the years, I’ve learned that my opinions are shared. Noah, being a veteran of AO now, truly exemplifies what being a professional river guide is all about. His conservative approach on the river is always appreciated, with his main concern being the safety of his guests. He guides with finesse and displays a high level of professionalism. He is extremely knowledgeable and educates his guests not only on technique, but on the natural history and geology of the area as well, all along with a refreshing sense of humor. He is an incredibly hard worker, barely even sitting down to take a bite to eat or a drink of water, just to make sure everything is done properly and on time. His passion for what he does is exhilarating and I’m sure, inspirational to the newer guides. Thank you for having such a wonderful individual on your team.
