This year your guides will engage the kids in a variety of games giving parents a "break from the action."  Well okay, I guess the parents can play too. Your guides will facilitate games that can be played on the river and while in camp such as Dead Fish Polo, Scavenger Hunt, Do It In Under A Minute, etc.

For additional information such as itinerary, what to bring, maps, etc., see "QUICK LINKS" on right sidebar.

The Colorado River is the perfect place to introduce youngsters to Colorado canoeing, camping and the great outdoors. There are opportunities for hiking and exploring, floating in your lifejacket and camping along the river’s edge. Reconnect with your kids away from TV and electronics and create some new memories. Bring the grandparents along too!

This spectacular canyon country of the Colorado Plateau, including Ruby and Horsethief Canyons, features majestic walls of red sandstone and offers some of the best canoeing in Colorado. The 26-mile section is gentle with occasional small Class I+ rapids to add spice to the journey (Class I is easy and Class V is difficult). Roads do not bound this portion of the river and the steep-walled canyons are accessible only from the river, giving the area a true wilderness setting.

You’ll be amazed at stands of shiny granite sculpted by water through the ages while paddling or floating in your life jacket past the remnants of ancient metamorphic rock, called Black Rock. Camping along the river’s banks and exploring a deep box canyon will leave you awed by the immensity of geologic time and the silence of the wilderness. This is BIG COUNTRY and a geologist’s paradise. Many of our educational classes focus on this area. This stretch of river near Grand Junction, CO, is ideal for canoeing.
