Anyone aware of any good commercial rafting trips in Colorado in
August/September? We would like some respectable class III & IV's with minimal
bottom dragging within 3 hours driving time of Denver.
Thanks in advance,
Keith |

The Arkansas (Royal Gorge) would be the obvious choice, but this year
it's pretty low, only 460 cfs at Parkdale.
The Colorado has several runs, including
Pumphouse to Rancho del Rio (11.6 miles, class III)
Shoshone Run, Exit 123 to Grizzly Creek (1.6 miles, III to IV)
Grizzly Creek to New Castle (15 miles, class II+)<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> |

Westwater Canyon, just west of the Colorado/Utah border is maybe 5 hrs.
from Denver, but you'll get III/III+ on the Colorado, 18 miles. Or put
on at Loma (above) to add 21 miles to the trip. Check Adventure Bound,

Consider using their inflatable kayaks for an extra challenge.
