River Trip Information:
Cataract Canyon through Canyonlands National Park is a journey into a spectacular, remote wilderness. This quality multi-faceted adventure is the ideal balance of serenity, fascination, and exhilaration – it will elevate your life. Between mid-May and mid-June, Cataract Canyon has some of the biggest and most challenging whitewater in the United States. This is a thrill seeker's dream, with stunningly powerful rapids. For those seeking “moderate” excitement, trips in late summer feature rapids that are big fun rolling waves. Spend your days rafting through the pristine Colorado River canyons; as early evening draws near, pull up to a private beach that we will transform into our river hotel. While guests finish setting up their tents, the guides will set up the kitchen and prepare a delicious dinner.
At night we will enjoy stories under the starlight as we commiserate with the guides and fellow guests.
