Cataract Canyon - 3 day paddle trip.
Looking for some real excitement in one of the most
beautiful and remote areas in the country? Our NEW 3 day paddle raft
trips in Cataract Canyon will fill the bill.
During July and August the rapids of Cataract Canyon become a paddle raft
playground as water levels drop in mid-summer. Our motorized snout boats
transport guests and paddle rafts to the top of rapid #1 and then whisk us to
Hite Marina and the take out for the return trip home. When the rest of the rest
is experiencing "low water" Cataract is the place to be.
Adults $650/Youth $475
Our Cataract Canyon trips, launching at
Mineral Canyon on the Green River
and taking out at Hite Marina on Lake
Powell, will introduce you to a slice of
this magical country. You'll float
a fifty mile section of the Green River through beautiful Labyrinth and
Stillwater Canyons, see the confluence of the Green and Colorado Rivers,
experience the famous rapids of the Colorado's Cataract Canyon and end the trip
on the northern tip of Lake Powell .
We offer this trip as a six day
rowing or three day motorized rafting expedition, which will include side
canyon hiking opportunities, time and weather permitting. Some of our rowing
trips may be accompanied by a motorized support raft in high water levels.
