When it comes to Colorado whitewater rafting, there is no better time or place than springtime in the Colorado Rockies.  As the Earth begins to tilt on its axis, making way for summer, the temperatures begin to rise and the purity of the white, snow-packed mountains begins to fade in water.  Snow crystals turn into water droplets, droplets combine and form tiny trickles that begin to flow down the mountains, trickles meet and become rivulets, rivulets become small streams, streams merge and become creeks, and finally, the cool clean Colorado creeks converge into rivers and when combined with the gradient of the river bed…Colorado’s world class rapids are born.
This past winter, the snow-gods decided to bless the Arkansas River basin with an incredible amount of the good stuff…pure, white snow!  And if you haven’t heard the buzz…the more snow…the more water…the more action!  This season, the snowpack has been augmented tremendously by a long series of heavy, spring snowstorms, meaning that the high-water action will stick around all throughout the upcoming, warm summer months.  Nowhere else in Colorado this summer will provide an experience comparable to that found in the Royal Gorge: warm weather, breathtaking scenery, abundant flora and fauna, an open and friendly community, and yes, the emerald colored water is even warm.  The Royal Gorge boasts the warmest section of class IV & V whitewater anywhere in Colorado (of course, high water spring runoff temperatures are still a bit chilly); upstream of the Royal Gorge, the river slowly makes its way through over sixty miles of calm, flat-water, heating up under the sun and raising its temperature to over 60 degrees Fahrenheit in the mid-summer season!  Taking a Colorado whitewater rafting trip with Royal Gorge Rafting is all about you having a good time: the good water, the good weather, and the good vibes…not to mention the professional, friendly, and experienced guides and kayakers.   By the time your experience at Royal Gorge Rafting is over, you’ll be planning your next trip to return to the Colorado white water rafting adventure found with Royal Gorge Rafting, our Deluxe Vacation Rentals and the White Water Bar & Grill.
Just call one of our dedicated office personnel, or check out our website to book your trip before the high-water all runs out.  We promise, it will be one of the most exciting and peaceful experiences you could can have in a lifetime…
