Extreme Rafting on The Arkansas River Numbers

If you are short of time and can’t enjoy the Full-Day Numbers experience, try just a taste of the Numbers. This trip covers the biggest rapids of the day, but cuts a half of a day of very continuous and exciting whitewater from the Numbers Full-Day trip.

Extremely rocky, this steep and very technical series of drops requires pinpoint precision paddling. Be prepared to make radical maneuvers as you punch powerful hydraulics and make lateral raft moves to thread the needle in boulder-choked drops. If you have time to look around you, the views of the 14,000 foot Collegiate Peaks are awe inspiring.

This trip is one step tougher than our Royal Gorge trip. If you’re looking for extreme action this is the trip for you!
