This stretch of Oh Be Joyful Creek in Colorado is 1 miles long and has been determined by American Whitewater to be a class V section. This is a very short section so it's not like you're gonna spend hours on the river in one stretch. A bit of exercise and a chance to spend some time outdoors are great reasons to come. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground. If you've been whitewater
rafting and kayaking outside Colorado you might find the rivers here a bit more challenging, so if you're not from around here don't forget that many runs in this state are not easy. There are many good hotels to choose from, but if you don’t have reservations you might end up
sleeping in your car. The wonderful Colorado scenery and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water beats anything. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, there are lots of good spots for that around here.
Briefly about the general area: A delightful site to pop by near Oh Be Joyful Creek is Gunsight Pass, and while you're here you can take a hike along the Trail Riders Trail.
