All the rage in river sports! Try the newest, most fun activity on the river - Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP)! A low-impact activity that's easy for never-evers to learn, you'll stand up or kneel on a large, surfboard-shaped board and steer with a long paddle as you navigate down the river. This section of the Upper Colorado River - through Little Gore Canyon - is the perfect spot to try this adventure.
The gentle Class II riffles and flat water create a good learning environment with the option for additional challenges if you're up for it! There are a couple more adventurous Class II-III sections as well so it's a great way to up the excitement a bit on our Upper Colorado Scenic Float.
