Full Day - Rafting - San Miguel River


 
Full Day (includes lunch) . San Miguel River . Seasonal Adventure-Summer

NEW!  Full-Day - San Miguel River Adventure 

Winding through the majestic San Juan Mountains in the shadows of 14,000 foot Mount Wilson, the San Miguel River is one of Colorado's most spectacular and least known river runs. Continuous Class II and III+ whitewater provide great whitewater action as the river makes its way through red-rock walls, scenic sandstone canyons and forested banks. The San Miguel's most popular sections are located 30 minutes from Telluride, 45 minutes from Ouray and 30 minutes from Ridgway. The San Miguel is a favorite for even the most seasoned paddler looking for a challenge, as well as being a great introductory river section.  These stretches are perfect for paddlers visiting the southwest corner of the state looking for a classic Colorado river adventure. *Riverside Deli Lunch included on Full-Day trip.

Good for Kids 12 years and above

Itinerary

Pre-Trip Details
Trips will depart promptly at designated trip time and head to the put-in location, just minutes from our shop!  Once we arrive at the the put-in, guides outfit each person with PFD's (personal flotation devise) and perform the RIGS "Safety Talk." From here, we split into individual boat loads (typically: 5 to 7 per-boat.) and review individualized instruction from your guide.  Once the stage is set for a successful, safe and exciting trip we hit the water!
