Overview
Imagine you’re in the mountains, just west of nowhere, standing at the edge of a canyon. The fresh air is alive with the scent of wildflowers, and nature is buzzing and humming all around. You’re on a winding path, walking down to a river. You’ve been well prepared, but this just got real. You’re going white water rafting!
After a few minutes of jostling and giggling, everyone’s on board and you’re sweeping downstream. You can almost hear your heart beating over the rushing water. The views and the rapids are becoming more intense, but it’s a playful river and it eases you in. It feels almost intimate, like nature has invited you to a private viewing.
Sometimes you’re so close to the cliffs you can reach out and touch them. Plants and trees grow impossibly out of crevices in sheer rock walls. It’s a constant unveiling of incredible beauty you can only see from the water! The gorgeous scenery seems endless, and when the two rivers join at the Sulphur Gates, it’s almost surreal.
