The Sights
of Cataract Canyon by Oarboat

Cataract Canyon river rafting trips take you through Canyonlands National Park on a journey into a spectacular, remote wilderness. This high quality adventure is the ideal balance of serenity, relaxation, and exhilaration. From the beginning of the trip, you will find yourself seduced by the pace of the river while absorbing beautiful scenery and enjoying the camaraderie of interesting people.

The oarboat is the traditional raft on the Colorado River. This type of raft places you ‘up close and personal’ with the river and its natural power. It’s a pure wilderness river trip combining all the comforts

needed to enjoy the outdoors. Only the dipping of the oars in the water breaks the quiet of the smooth water sections.

The longer trips allow for more hiking time. The Colorado River in Canyonlands National Park has some of the most outstanding hikes in all of Utah.

Trips in May and June in Cataract Canyon have some of the biggest and most challenging whitewater in the United States. This thrill seeker’s dream has stunningly powerful rapids. For those seeking “moderate” excitement, late summer trips feature rapids that have fun rolling waves.
