This is a nice easy beginner stretch on the upper Colorado river. The rapids are fun wave trains with plenty of flat water in between. The river divides in several areas. Pick the route with the most water. Plenty of good areas to practice rolls, ferries and eddy turns. Definitely check out the Statebrige Bar...great bands on Sunday afternoon and good food for the hungry paddler.
