Intermediate River Rafting Trips
Wildhorse Canyon (Moderate to advanced, Class III-IV)
Wildhorse Canyon is a pulse-quickening section of Adventure Class Whitewater that is pretty much non-stop action, especially at higher water levels. Located just upstream of Browns Canyon, the rapids here tend to be more continuous with fewer opportunities for casual floating. With some sections as narrow as 12 feet, the fast-flowing water creates a vigorous pace! You will catch glimpses of the high peaks in between the challenges of navigating rapids such as Frog Rock Rapid, Little Seidel's, and House Rock. Wildhorse Canyon is available as an option on our Numbers Full Day trip, or as part of one of our Multi Day trip packages. It can also be run in combination with Browns Canyon as a Full Day option during peak flows, please call for more information. Minimum age depends on water levels.
The Numbers (Very advanced, Class IV-V)
This section of the Arkansas is considered by many to be the ultimate adrenaline rush on the Arkansas River! The Numbers is a narrow, rocky, steep, cold-water run requiring advanced skills. Beginning at nearly 8,000 feet in elevation, this section requires the negotiation of tight maneuvers and boat-crashing waves, delivering some of the most exciting rapids on the Arkansas River. Due to the vigorous nature of this section of Adventure Class Whitewater, all participants must be in good physical condition and have the ability to swim. Helmets are provided and wetsuits may be required. Please note that the minimum age for this trip is 16 and may require prior experience. Please call for more information.
