What Guests Say About Stu

Stu is an excellent guide plus a real a good guy. He knows so much about the area, the rapids and surrounding mountains, he made our running of the rapids not only exciting but also informative making for a fantastic trip. We met the other guides on the team for the day and each guide was extremely good but Stu made our day.

Great time! Took my wife, 16 and 12 year old daughters on what was our first rafting trip and could not have had a better time. We were with Arkansas river legend Stu with 30+ years experience. We will be back.
