Twin River Outfitters is a first class outfit. We (group of 7) just finished the 5 day, 4 night trip from Gala to Glasgow and it was nothing short of awesome. These guys provided quality equipment, instruction, great campsites, and were very accommodating. I highly recommend you choose them for your river adventures.
