It is remote, untouched, and splendid in its austerity. The Green River winds through it warmly, granting easy access to wild and forgotten places.

Our trips are either seven days of drifting, paddling, swimming, hiking, exploring, laughing, relaxing, and star-gazing, or a week of wondering about nature, balance, possibilities, and life. Sometimes they're both.

The canyon has been home to humans for thousands of years, and we will note their passing by visiting Native American rock art sites, exploring abandoned ranches, and envisioning Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid hiding out in the draws and bottoms. We’ll also relive John Wesley’s Powell’s sense of discovery and uncertainty as we tackle the river’s rapids in small inflatable kayaks, (or not-so-small oar-rafts for those who want to avoid the uncertainty).

Our week-long whitewater rafting trips begin in Green River, Utah with a butterflies-in-the-stomach flight over the canyon to our launch site and combines nicely with a visit to Arches or Canyonlands National Park.
