Colorado White Water Rafting on the Arkansas River -
Bighorn Sheep Canyon
 FULL DAY - BIGHORN SHEEP CANYON
This trip
launches beneath the dramatic Cotopaxi cliffs at our convenient riverside base.
We begin the trip in easy water to give us time to form a competent paddle crew
(or passengers in an oar boat.) Floating past spectacular geological formations
and views of the Sangre de Cristo mountain range we run exciting Class II-III
rapids like Texas Creek, Maytag, and Devil's Hole. After a delicious buffet
lunch we plunge into more demanding and technical rapids: Prelude, 3 Rocks
Falls, Spikebuck and Shark's Tooth to name a few. This trip is suitable for
first timers or experienced rafters. Sightings of bighorn sheep are very common
in this section. The full day trip is the best value and most rewarding river
experience with trip time of 5 to 6 hours.
