Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in Colorado are harder than the national norm, so you'd better keep in mind that a large number of rivers in this state are not easy. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. If you have the time you can make this a two day trip, so pack your sleeping bag. When you're paddling down a San Juan Mountains river like this one you always get great scenery along the way too. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to one, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. The |
