Here we are relaxing on a beautiful Thanksgiving morning in Vernal, Utah reflecting on what makes us grateful in our lives. With all of the turmoil 2020 and the COVID pandemic has caused for each us we have found it is even more important and relevant in our lives to surround ourselves with wonderful people. We have been so fortunate to have so many amazing employees here at Dinosaur River Expeditions. All of these incredible folks have become like family for us and we look forward to their smiling faces arriving each spring for a new rafting season. Because of these great employees we have fantastic guests that join us on our rafting trips. Many of these guests return year after year and the love they have developed for the rivers we float is contagious and reminds us of why we do what we do as a big happy river family. The off season is very quite around the Dinosaur warehouse, the boats are stored away, the vehicles are parked and idle but it does not take away from the memories we have created and the new ones that are in the near future. As you and your friends and family enjoy your holidays this season take a minute to be thankful for what makes you happy in life and cherish those moments. With all of our differences, the stress of the new normal we hope that everyone in our giant circle of friends and family is able to find their piece of happiness.

Thank you from your Dinosaur River Expeditions family.
