    Jack and Katie were fantastic! We had a great time with them. The 3rd and 4th lines were the favorits. The only thing that would have made it a 5 star was the location of the lines. We were picturing over the river, great sceneries, but we were not. The sage brush was over after the first zipline. Instructors were 5 star, ziplines locationa dn length 2 star.

    Our family (4 kids ages 8-16) had a great zipline experience. Since we had never ziplined before, it was less thrilling than anticipated. However, the views were beautiful, and the guides were energetic and entertaining during the slow times between runs. It was a great experience for the whole family, and we'd definitely recommend it.

    We had a great time this afternoon with our Zip Line tour guides, Benjamin Knight & Brayden Melni. We took our 9-year-old grandson on his first zip line ride and he was thrilled and the guides were extremely helpful, friendly, and encouraging. It will be an experience that we will all cherish for the rest of our lives. Thanks, guys! =)

    We attended a "Scuba Class" tonight in Rupert. It was absolutely incredible!! We are ready to take the course to be certified. Our instructor, Michael was so patient with us, and he made it fun.
