What to Expect

This section of the Upper Colorado River through Little Gore Canyon is the perfect spot to test your abilities with this adventure. The Class II riffles and flat water create a bit of a challenge. You should be comfortable with the fact that you will likely fall in during the trip. There are a couple more adventurous Class II-III sections as well so it’s a great way to up the excitement a bit on our Upper Colorado Scenic Float.
