Conquering Cataract Canyon

Sustainability Awakening

Rafting the Colorado River through Cataract Canyon is an exhilarating experience, with some of the largest, most sought-after whitewater in the West.

This unimpeded stretch of the river offers a glimpse of what the Colorado once was, before being heavily developed and managed.

This year, river runners are in the midst of one of the most exciting high-water years in recent memory.

The Colorado Basin River Forecast Center is currently forecasting a peak in the high 70,000 CFS range, with the potential for even higher flows.

But it’s not just about the adrenaline rush; it’s also about witnessing the river reclaiming its wild self.

It’s an opportunity to rethink one of our country’s greatest environmental mistakes, which was damming Glen Canyon.

Let's keep conserving and enjoying the nature with Sustainability Awakening.
