Upper Roaring Fork through the Woody Creek Canyon is a half day whirlwind of continuous class III whitewater perfect for beginners and intermediate rafters alike. The first half of the trip takes you through the beautiful Woody Creek Canyon with a backdrop of looming red stone cliffs. The second half of the trip picks up through Snowmass Canyon and you will confront Toothache, Sledgehammer, and many more challenging rapids.

The raft trip, shuttle, lunch or snack, and splash gear and wetsuit (when appropriate). They do not include photos, tips.
What to Wear Rafting
We suggest wearing quick-drying clothing such as non-cotton shorts and t-shirt and/or a bathing suit. Also important are sunscreen (you will be rafting at nearly 9,000 feet where the sun is intense!), sunglasses with retaining device, waterproof camera, and old sneakers or sandals with a heal strap. Bring a towel to dry off with and a change of clothes for your ride home.

We provide splash gear on all of our trips, and wetsuit, helmet, and wetsuit booties when appropriate.
