Tips for Colorado River Rafting Excursions

• WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?

Since you are going to get wet anyway while
navigating the rapids, wearing a swimsuit as your
base layer is a smart choice. This ensures that
you remain comfortable throughout the journey.
For men, this could be board shorts as well as a
rash guard to keep from getting burned. Women may
want swim/river shorts and a rash guard, which
makes going to the bathroom in the wild a bit
less complicated.

• SHOULD I PACK A HEADLAMP WITH ME?

Rafting trips often involve camping a headlamp
might seem like a minor item, but it's magnified
during camping and nighttime activities. It
serves as a hand-free light source, enabling you
to navigate in the dark and complete tasks with
ease. Try to find a headlamp with rechargeable or
long-lasting batteries.

• IS PACKING A RAINCOAT WORTH IT?

Camping may include unexpected rain showers.
Packing rain gear ensures that you stay dry and
comfortable, allowing you to fully enjoy your
camping experience. Bringing along a waterproof,
lightweight jacket is a good idea in case it
starts to pour when it's most inconvenient.

• WHAT FOOTWEAR SHOULD I BRING WITH ME?

Proper footwear is essential for rafting
adventures. Invest in high-quality sandals that
offer good grip and protection for your feet. We
strongly oppose flip flops, as you can easily
lose them on the river, and they don't provide
enough support for walking on the rocky shores.
