SUMMARY:White River – Rangely\, CO.\, May 20 - 22. 65 miles\, Class II
DESCRIPTION:White River from Trujillo Wash to the Enron Gas Wells take out. \nThis is a three day\, two night trip .  Plan on two nights camping on the river – that  allows a full day for the long drive back  on Mon to avoid weekend traffic – it is 285 miles from Denver to Rangely and another 30 or more miles to and from the takeout.  Shuttle takes a good 2 to 3 hours round trip. Put in at Trujillo Wash and take out at Enron Gas Wells. \nThis is an ACA trip – River Rating is Class I/II  (helmet required). There is one Class II rapid in Cowboy Canyon that can “generally” be avoided.  Intermediate paddling skill is required – this is NOT a beginner level trip. You must be able to maneuver your canoe around many strainers and through tight corners with very strong eddy lines\, and be able to eddy out quickly. \nBLM’s Floating the White River brochure describes this portion of the River “for 100 miles between Rangely\, Colorado\, and the river’s confluence with the Green River\, the White River cuts a rugged\, scenic trough into the high desert plains of the Uintah Basin. This is a place to paddle\, watch wildlife\, and occasionally leave the river for an unforgettable hike.” \nThis is an ACA trip. Non ACA members will need to pay $10 to cover insurance.    No dogs\, no little kids\, no “guests”\, except if you were planning on paddling with a non-RMCC member\, clear it with me first. \nNo sign ups before March 15th – NOTE!  I will be gone for 2 weeks in April\, and in and out of town after that. – be prepared to wait for any reply to an e-mail or phone call. \nTrip Coordinator: Mat Bozek\, matbozekx@gmail.com to register for this trip or ask questions.

SUMMARY:Yampa River\, South Beach to Duffy Mountain\, through Little Yampa Canyon. Class I.   CANCELLED
DESCRIPTION:The South Beach to Duffy Mountain stretch of the Yampa an easy flatwater/Class I trip. Early May is a good time to float the Yampa because the bugs should not be a problem\, there should not be competition for campsites\, and usually the water level is excellent. \nThis is an easy trip for people new to canoeing and canoe camping. Pack a warm sleeping bag because the mornings may be frosty. A headwind is guaranteed and it could be strong.   \nThe first day’s float will be through private ranch land\, and that is where the eagle nests will be seen. We will see bald eagles and their nests; we may also see baby eagles in the nests. The second day we will be paddling through BLM land\, which is more scenic but without the eagle nests. Flocks of sheep with big scary sheep dogs may be seen\, but we do not have to camp with them. Docile cattle may roam past camp. \nThis stretch has about half a dozen improved campsites. Improved means a table and a fire ring. Most likely we will camp on a large island inside BLM land\, without improvements. This trip could be run in one long day. It could be run in 3 days\, which would have you paddling a little each day and sitting in camp a lot as there are not hiking trails to explore. I like this as a two-day trip. Usually\, we reach the take-out around 2:00 or 3:00 in the afternoon of the second day and can drive much of the way back to Denver in day light. \nProvided that we get approval from the Yampa State Park office\, we can camp at the put-in\, South Beach\, the night before launching. There is no fee to camp at South Beach\, but everyone will need to either have an annual state parks pass on their vehicle\, or purchase day passes.  State park passes also apply while we are on the river and both the put-in and take-out are managed by Yampa River State Park.  Both South Beach and Duffy Mountain river accesses have pit toilets. While on the river\, we will have to pack out our waste. If you prefer not to camp the night before we launch\, there are motel rooms that can be had in Craig\, about 10 or 15 minutes from South Beach.  \nTrip Coordinator: Dan Custer (custer.dan@gmail.com) \n

SUMMARY:South Platte River: Brighton to Fort Lupton March 18th\, 9:00 am - to 2:00pm
DESCRIPTION:Early Spring Beginner Day Paddle! \nMarch 18th\, 2023 @ 9:00 am – to 2:00pm (could reschedule to Sunday\, March 18\, depending on weather)\nSign ups begin March 1st \n The South Platte River from Brighton to Fort Lupton is generally a beginner friendly 9 mile trip that is lined with cottonwoods hosting numerous birds and other wildlife… a nice way to begin the paddling season. There is one mandatory portage at a dam and one boat chute drop early on that will most likely be  portaged depending on conditions. Meet at Veterans Park in Brighton and be ready to begin the car shuttle no later than 9 am.  Take out is at Fort Lupton’s ballfields park.  Bring Rain Gear\, canoe floatation\, painters\, spare paddle and of course a PFD. Also bring a set of dry clothes in a water proof bag and a lunch or snack.  Don’t pack too heavy\,  the two portages are not all that easy\, and you need to cross  a boulder field and fence. \nFor a detailed description of the river and parking areas go to: http://boc123.com/Kayak/RiverGuide/South_Platte_Brighton_City.cfm \nThis will be an ACA trip – e-mail your aca # to Mat. If not an ACA member\, bring $10 per person for the insurance fee.   Potentially the trip may be run on Sunday depending on the weather. \nWarning! – there are now a very lot of strainers (trees) in the river with a lot of tight turns – you need to have good boat handling skills to avoid them.  The lower the water is\, the tighter the gaps past the sweepers.  I expect the water to be on the low side of average \nSign up with trip coordinator Mat Bozek\,   matbozekx@gmail.com  No sign ups before  March 1st

SUMMARY:San Juan River (Sand Island to Mexican Hat)
DESCRIPTION:San Juan River from Sand Island to Mexican Hat paddling for 3.2 days below Bluff\, UT. \nOctober 13 – 15 (or 16)\, 2022 \nThis will be an ACA-sanctioned outing/event which requires EITHER ACA membership OR a $10/person insurance fee.  The trip is a series of 3 days through interesting geologic formations with 1 class II+ (or III- based on water levels) rapids that we will scout\, and a couple of class II rapids.  We plan to see most of the petroglyph sites and ruins\, including the Butler Wash Panel\, the Desecration Panel area\, River House\, Chinle Wash\, and the Mule’s Ear Diatreme geologic area. \nWe will purchase the Navajo Nation’s backcountry hiking and camping permits at $45 for 3 days to allow access on the left bank.  This along with $12 in BLM fees will mean that a check for $57 to me will be needed very soon.  We will decide whether to pay $75 per car for the shuttle or do it ourselves. \nI will need to let go of any of the 15 slots that we did not fill 3 weeks ahead of the trip so that I can get some of my money back.    Note that helmets\, floating painters\, floatation bags\, throw rope and bailing devices are needed and we are hoping for 700-2000cfs and good weather. \nMost of us will camp October 12th (night before our launch) at Sand Island and enjoy the petroglyphs there.  Depending on how quickly we cover the 27 total miles\, some of us will stay on the Navajo side the 3rd river night with great views of the Mexican Hat formation and others will paddle out the final 4 miles. \n  \nContact Karen A. <canoekarena@msn.com> now to get details and to sign up.

SUMMARY:Ruby - Horsethief Canyons of the Colorado\, Loma to Westwater\, October 11 - 14\, 2022:  3 nights / 4 days
DESCRIPTION:This is a autumn trip — 4-days / 3-nights — paddling and hiking in Horsethief and Ruby Canyons of the Colorado River in western Colorado and eastern Utah — Tuesday\, October 11th – Friday\, October 14th.  If all goes well we will launch the 11th by 10 am\, be hiking in Rattlesnake Canyon (Mile 3.2) until late afternoon and camping at Beavertail 2 (Mile 3.6).  The 12th we’ll paddle about 10 miles to Mee Canyon (Mile 13.6)\, hiking in the afternoon/evening and/or the following morning to early afternoon.  Late afternoon\, October 13\, we paddle about 3 miles down to Black Rocks 5 (Mile 16.5).  October 14 is takeout day — but don’t expect to get to Westwater before late afternoon.  We will start early and paddle about 1.5 miles to McDonald Creek to check out the petroglyphs and then another .2 mile to Knowles Canyon to hike.   \nSee the recently revised trip flier for details and requirements. \nBecause this is intended to be a boating AND HIKING trip\, expect to be paddling in the late afternoon when the winds are likely to be the worst.  The two longest hikes (Rattlesnake Canyon on Day 1 and Knowles Canyon on Day 4 will not be hiking from camp.  You don’t have to hike\, but BLM rules require that\, as boaters\, we stay together as a group.

Helmets not required\nMeet-up time at Tex’s in Moab\, UT: TBD\, but probably about 10:00am (might depend on the wind predictions for that\nday)\nEstimated time of take-out: Tex’s will meet us at 10am on the day of take out with a jet boat to take us back to Moab.\nArrive back at Tex’s at about 2PM\nTrip Coordinator: Lindsay Meeks | 303-718-6940 | Lindsay.L.Meeks@gmail.com\nShuttle costs: $200 per Adult (13 and up) plus $45 per canoe (A $100 non-refundable deposit per person will be required)\nShuttle Reservation: Once approved for the trip\, each participant will need to submit their deposit directly with Tex’s. A\nlink will be provided so that this can be done online.\nPermit Costs (NPS): $36 Permit Reservation fee (divided by group) + $25 per person\nCOVID-19 requirements: All participants must be fully vaccinated and boosted.\nOverview:\nThe trip through Stillwater Canyon takes us through Canyonlands National Park. Amazing rock formations and scenery on\na grand scale along with ruins and rock art sites provide plenty of opportunities for exploration. The river provides access\ninto the Doll House and the Maze.\nSince there is no road access at the end of this run when we reach the confluence with the Colorado River we will arrange for a jet boat shuttle back upstream the Colorado River to Moab\, through Tex’s Riverways. Each participant will\nbe required to pay for their part of the shuttle.\nNote that our travel schedule will depend\, in part\, on wind predictions\, but our BLM permit requires that we “launch\,\ntravel (stay within visual contact) and camp together as a group”.\nSince Moab is a 6-7 hour drive from the Front Range\, most paddlers will arrive in the area the night before put-in with\neveryone on their own for camping or lodging. After meeting at Tex’s Riverways on put-in morning (time TBD)\, we’ll\noff-load boats and river gear and load onto their trailer. Once at Mineral Bottom we will start rigging the boats and we’ll\nhope to launch by 1:00.\nEach day we will try to be on the river by 9:00 or 9:30 unless we decide as a group a different time the night before.\nDepending on the speed and desires of the group we will be taking one or two layover days. After the Confluence\, I hope\nto have a layover at or near the Dollhouse trailhead so those that want to hike can do so.\nTo sign up for the trip\, contact Lindsay

SUMMARY:3 days in WY on the Green River (RMCC Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge)
DESCRIPTION:RMCC Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) paddling for 3 days in WY on the Green River below Fontanelle Reservoir followed by an optional day paddle below the Flaming Gorge dam. \nThis will be an ACA-sanctioned outing/event which requires EITHER ACA membership OR a $10/person insurance fee. The trip is a series of 3 class II day trips through the Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge on the Green River and a an optional continuation to new camps and Section A – still the Green River – below the Flaming Gorge dam for those who can handle II+ (III-) on Monday. Kit and Henry are arriving a day early to stake out and publicize some territory at the Weeping Rock or Slate Creek campgrounds or between them. These WY BLM campgrounds are free. Fossil Buttes National Monument is nearby.  \nThe NWR does not allow camping\, so we will leave the tents in 1 place and do 3 day paddles likely of 16\, 18\, and 11 miles. The 2nd evening will be a potluck with Henry and Karen providing Dutch Oven specialties. If Visitor Center hours work for us we will try to see their exhibits. Information on wildlife to be seen is at: https://www.fws.gov/refuge/seedskadee/species . Note that helmets\, floating painters\, flotation\, throw rope and bailing devices are needed and we will want 800-2000cfs for each section that we do. There will be several weirs where we need to take a mild chute in the middle\, and some areas will require rock dodging especially where the river is braided and carrying less water. \nSign up soon\, as we are likely to reserve a few campsites near Dutch John where all group sites are already taken. These will get us close to the Section A run of 7 miles below the Flaming Gorge Dam. This area is pool drop\, full of fishermen\, and includes Mother-in-law Rapid. Scenery is beautiful and we take out at Little Hole early enough to do the drive home or to wherever.  \nContact Karen Amundson (canoekarena@msn.com) to sign up.
