Whitewater Rafting in Northern New Mexico


It Was A Wonderful Experience

“To Whom it May Concern:

Today our daughter and our 2 grandchildren went on your New Wave No Wave Float Trip. It was a wonderful experience.  The kids LOVED it.  Our guide, Jessie, was delightful.  We would ask for him again.  The lunch was delicious, and the presentation was picture perfect.  We felt like we were the Rockefeller’s. Thank you for offering this option for younger children.  We will spread the word.”

Vanette and David Harris

When potential customers ask what distinguishes us from other companies, there’s just one answer: our customer service, which really means our guides. Jessie continues to get rave reviews and requests. Come and meet him!

The New Wave No Wave Scenic Float in the Orilla Verde Recreation Area

The gentle New Wave No Wave Float trip traverses the scenic Orilla Verde section of the Rio Grande del Norte National Monument of northern New Mexico, and is perfect for kids of 4 or 5 years of age and for those who prefer a float to whitewater. Currently, we are trying to protect this National Monument from misguided attempts by the administration in in Washington to either eliminate it completely or alter its present configuration. This Monument is the product of years of advocacy by New Mexicans from every walk of life, and went through the designation process unopposed. Help us save it, so that you too can bring your grandkids to this beautiful place. Please tell your Congressional representatives to leave the Monument as is. Thanks!
