Lower Elk River

The Elk River Canyon is a large volume Class IV river with steep canyon walls of unique geology. With unique geology comes unique hydrology, which helps form all of the exciting rapids. This is our most popular run. From May to September the Elk River Canyon is a classic river run that has it all; exciting rapids, amazing wilderness, and cliff jumping. Looking up you may be rewarded with sightings of big game animals and birds of prey. With no roads or trails along this stretch of river the only way to experience it is by boat. There is a hike down a long set of stairs to get to the river, you can check it out in our gallery.​

Bull River

In the spring when the snow melts and the rains come, the Bull River changes from a small mountain river to a roaring whitewater run! This spring trip offered in May and June delivers all the thrill of great river running. Stunning mountain scenery steeped in history surrounds you as you eat waves paddling through an uninhabited river valley flowing through the Majestic Rocky Mountains. The excitement builds with each set of rapids to the climax in the lower canyon, an incredible crescendo of whitewater. The Lower Bull Canyon is one of the most sustained stretches of class IV water in the area.​
