3 Opportunities to paddle Ruby-Horsethief


A third opportunity to paddle the scenic Ruby-Horsethief section of the Colorado River near Fruita, CO has been added to the two already listed on the RMCC calendar (this is a very popular trip at a gorgeous time of the year).  This is a two-night camping trip starting Sunday, September 26 and going through Tuesday, September 28 and is designed for people wanting to boat more leisurely, spending an extra day in the canyon which should be displaying its fall colors. For more information go to the RMCC website calendar at rockymountaincanoeclub.net. To register contact Kathryn Mutz at [email protected] or 303-499-1092.
