Green River Rafting Trips in Utah
Utah Whitewater Rafting on the Green River
The
Green River in Utah offers two outstanding sections
of whitewater. The Lodore Canyon of the Green River
was the first major canyon encountered by John Wesley
Powell and his men on their 1869 expedition. Powell's
adventures live on in the rapids he named: Disaster
Falls, Triplet Falls and Hells Half Mile. Set aside
as an American treasure in 1938 under the National
Park system, this canyon is a sanctuary for bighorn
sheep, deer and other friendly critters.
The Green River splits the 10,000 foot high Tavaputs Plateau and forms a gorge deeper than the Grand Canyon. Over one million uninhabited acres surround this holdout of the Old West. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid used these remote canyons one hundred years ago to escape the law. Despite the name Desolation Canyon, the river surroundings offer green cottonwood groves, white sand beaches, and clear-water side streams
