Trips

This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that invigorates your spirit and reconnects you to nature through beautiful geology, whitewater and friendship. You get a multi-day journey through the awe-inspiring canyons of Colorado and Utah where the dinosaurs and outlaws once roamed. During the day we paddle exciting rapids, enjoy the scenery, hike, meditate and scan the cliffs for wildlife. At night, we gather by the campfire, trade stories and – since Dinosaur National Monument is a Dark Sky Park – we get to camp under a magnificent blanket of stars.

Our expert guides love to share stories about the history of the river and the geological features that surround her. They’re also culinary wizards, whipping up delicious, nourishing meals for you along the way! Every trip is an epic celebration and ends in a spectacular finale: our legendary, traditional costume party on the final night under the stars. Secure your spot now and let the river’s current propel you toward an elevated state of joy and profound well-being.
