CLASS I-III 15 miles
The Scofield Reservoir to picnic area above Price Canyon section of Price River is 15 miles long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class I-III section. The put-in is not too far from Price, if you're not familiar with the area there's a road map further down the page. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. The nearby hotels are a bit away from the river, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way around here you won't find a large number of
other rivers. A bit of exercise and just hanging out with mother nature are great reasons to come. The natural beauty of Carbon County and the playfulness of the water have people coming here. There are a few other sections in this river system that can be paddled as well. This
stretch has enough mileage for an overnight trip, so go ahead and pack your sleeping bag.
