Green Bay Rock section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS IV-V(V+) 5.5 miles
The nature scenery of Colorado and the cool fresh water make the trip here worthwhile. The rivers for whitewater rafting and kayaking in this state are often tougher than in other states, so if you're not from around here don't forget that rivers here are not as easy as elsewhere. The Green Bay Rock section of Clear Creek in Colorado is 5.5 miles long and has been determined by American Whitewater to be a class IV-V(V+) section. No matter if you're whitewater rafting or kayaking there are lots of good spots for that around here. The put-in location is a
short drive from Boulder, as you can see on the road map further down. Getting a good workout and a chance to spend some time outdoors will make you glad you came. The Green Bay Rock stretch is one of many paddling stretches in this river system. For all you camping people there
are campgrounds nearby. This stretch is mid length, good for a one day paddling trip. No need to look hard for hotels, but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car. Whitewater paddling here in the Front Range is a great experience.
