The Arkansas River is on the rise due to warm temperatures in the high country and now is a great time to raft the Royal Gorge and the Numbers sections of the Arkansas River prior to high water closures. Family-friendly raft trips through the Browns Canyon and the Bighorn Sheep Canyon are also running daily now through Labor Day. Call 800-723-8987 or book online today.
