Whitewater Rafting Colorado


Want to try whitewater rafting? Colorado is probably the best place for it.

We went to Buena Vista recently to ride the Arkansas River, and we got everything we were hoping for.

Rushing rapids. Summer sun. Mountain Views. We even saw three bighorn sheep standing up on the canyon walls.

The problem with whitewater rafting is that it's addictive. We did a Class III down Browns Canyon, and now I want to do "The Numbers" and paddle down Royal Gorge's Class IV/V. Good thing there's plenty of summer left.

This year the water in Colorado is at its highest in 13 years. So get out there and paddle!

Thanks for the comment on my blog! You have a cool blog, too. I love the Colorado Springs area. Cave of the Winds and the zoo are awesome. We still need to go rafting, though. That's one thing we haven't done since we moved to Colorado.
