The rapids are run on days 3 & 4, and during high water (May through June) provide the biggest and most challenging whitewater in the U.S. In July the river drops and the rapids become more moderate, yet still exciting.
There are beautiful beach camps and with five days there is plenty of time to do all the great hikes and numerous camp activities. We stop daily for hikes up secret canyons only accessible by river. We’ll visit Native American Anasazi ruins, incredible rock formations and enjoy the solitude. Click to see learn more about Cataract Canyon.
The oarboat is the traditional raft on the Colorado River. This type of craft places you ‘up close and personal’ with the river and its natural awesome power. It’s a pure wilderness river trip combining all the comforts needed to enjoy the outdoors. Carrying four to five people, the small 18-foot rafts put you right in the heart of the whitewater action. Only the quiet dipping of the oars in the water breaks the impressive natural quiet of the smooth water sections. The 5 day oarboat trip allows for more hiking as well as a more overall pure wildernesses trip. The oarboats will be motored off of Lake Powell at the end of the journey.
Return to Moab by scenic airflight (suggested option) offering a bird’s eye view of Canyonlands National Park and Cataract Canyon.
