The nature scenery of Colorado and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream make the trip here worthwhile. The average whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit harder to master in this state than those in other states, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that rivers here are not as easy as elsewhere. For all you camping people there are campgrounds nearby. There are nice comfortable hotels here, but if |
you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car. The put-in location is a short drive from Silverthorne. No matter if you're whitewater rafting or kayaking this is an area with plenty of places for that.
