An expedition into Westwater Canyon delivers maximum whitewater in minimum time! This is an unforgettable escape into a unique backcountry canyon. Here the oldest layer of rock, the Pre-Cambrian Vishnu Schist erupts out of the belly of the earth. The schist rock glistens black in the sun before giving way to stunning red rock cliffs that tower above it. And oh, the whitewater you'll see! As canyon walls squeeze the river into a tighter and tighter space, the river moves faster or more furiously, pouring over rocks and holes. In a small, lightweight row-raft you are as close to the action as you can get! This is a classic whitewater ride and is tempered only by Cataract Canyon. Compare to find the best one day anywhere in the West!
