Lower Colorado River
Class II - Class IV
As the Colorado River flows west through its namesake state, it enters the majestic scenery of Glenwood Canyon. The Class III Shoshone stretch and Class II sections of Glenwood Canyon offer plenty of excitement for paddlers from Summit County to Vail to Aspen. Further west, Ruby-Horsethief Canyon is a classic desert canyon overnighter located between the Colorado/Utah border just west of Grand Junction. Its gentle Class II stretches provide fun and excitement for all ages.CROA Outfitters on The Lower Colorado River
