On Friday, July 26th, I completed a raft trip with Holiday Expeditions through Cataract Canyon. I would like to share some observations on my experience.

First of all, I am a seasoned traveler, having enjoyed tours and expeditions through the back country and wilderness of New Zealand, Switzerland, Ireland, Canada and much of the southwest and Northwest United States, to mention but a few. The grandeur and majesty of the Colorado River and Cataract Canyon require little elaboration. Worthy of comment, however, is the reason I was able to enjoy this experience to the fullest.

The River Guide Team, led by "Big Al" and consisting of Brian, Kevin, Vern and Brahm, enhanced this experience beyond my wildest expectations. As an executive, responsible for a team of twenty professionals, I found their performance to be outstanding; each of them often going "beyond the call of duty."

I found this team to be professional, educational, skillful, helpful and, perhaps above all, sensitive and caring about their guests' individual needs. In these individuals you have found a consummate team which served to elevate a life experience to even greater heights. I compliment you on your organization and trust you appreciate the value you have in Al, Brian, Kevin, Vern and Brahm, your most valuable business assets.

I encourage you to share this letter with the members of your entire staff so that they may see how, in one man's opinion, you have succeeded in what I believe must have been a personal goal for you: to enable others to enjoy, appreciate and respect the river environment.

Sincerely,

Jan Scott Beck
