Colorado whitewater - Animas River, unknown County

Trimble Lane to 32nd Street Park section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 

CLASS I-II     10 miles
  The beautiful scenery of Colorado and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water are in themselves reasons enough to come here to paddle. This section of Animas River is 10 miles long and is a class I-II section of whitewater according to American Whitewater. Whitewater rafting and kayaking in Colorado is often more difficult than elsewhere, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that rivers here are less forgiving. This section is long enough for an overnight trip if you take your time, so go ahead and pack your camp stove. Animas River doesn't have
    a lot of paddling sections, the Trimble Lane to 32nd Street Park section is the only one. There aren’t any hotels right nearby but if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem and if you make reservations in advance you're all set.
