The average New Mexico whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit easier to master than those in other states, so don't forget that a large
    number of rivers in this state are quite easy. The natural beauty of Rio Arriba County and the playfulness of the water will make you feel great. If you're coming from Espanola it's not a long drive at all to the put-in
location. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to one, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. There are campgrounds quite near the river where you can camp. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking around here you'll find a large number of good places. A good workout and just hanging out with mother nature will make you glad you came.

Briefly about the general area:
 
Since you're here at Known World Guide Service why not go to Canon del Rio Grande, and at Known World Guide Service you always meet someone from Embudo. Have a glorious hiking adventure along the Sierra Mosca Trail; if you're here you can take a hike along the Medio Dia Trail. Coming to this river is always a good idea. It is very waterless here at Known World Guide Service mostly. All through the month of August you get the most rain around here, and the driest month of the year is February. For the period of the warm days of summer highs here at Known World Guide Service get into the 80's.
