You may only raft the Yampa River a few weeks each spring

This makes the Yampa River one of the most sought after white water rafting adventures in America
Raft 72 miles through a colorful 2,000 ft. deep sandstone gorge in Colorado’s Dinosaur National Monument, the Yampa has carved a spectacular canyon maze unsurpassed for its sublime beauty and wilderness. National Geographic Traveler Magazine call its “scope and grandeur too big to take in at one time the sense of isolation nearly complete.” River craft is the only means of traversing the rock and wildlife fantasy land.

The Yampa Canyon has a scale that rivals the Grand Canyon

The Yampa River is the LAST MAJOR FREE-FLOWING RIVER in the entire Colorado River system, and at prime in May and early June when there are large playful waves from first day to last. Warm Springs Rapid, considered one of the west’s “Big Drops.”
