county,
Highway 149 to Blue Mesa Reservoir section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS II 10 miles
This section of Cebolla River in Colorado is 10 miles long and has been rated as a class II section by American Whitewater. The average Colorado whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit harder to master than those in other states, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that a lot of the rivers here are not suitable for beginners. A bit of exercise and just hanging out with mother nature have a lot of people coming here. There are no other stretches to paddle along Cebolla River than the Highway 149 to Blue Mesa Reservoir stretch. The
nature scenery of Gunnison County and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water have people coming here. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. If you hurry you can run this section in a day but why not make it an overnighter, so go ahead and pack
your camping stuff. 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.
