High in the pristine Rocky Mountain wilderness of Colorado, the mighty Colorado River begins. The Colorado River is world-renown for its legendary whitewater rapids; some of the largest whitewater in North America froths deep within the canyons of Utah and Arizona. These gargantuan and spectacularly clad canyons and landscapes through which the Colorado River plunges are no less famous.
Imagine this: rafting the Colorado River all the way through (if that were possible) would take you past 5 National Parks, and a combination of 6 National Monuments, Conservation & Recreation Areas and State Parks. Endless in scenic wonder and majesty, any trip along this river will be the adventure of a lifetime.
Can you think of any other river that can do all that? These wonderful photos from Debra Wells that show a Colorado River raft trip of a girl named Lisa and her friend in 1980.
