Q&A
A: Great question! Kids as young as 6 can usually join, but it depends on the outfitter's policy and the water conditions. It's a fun ride with some class II and one exciting class III rapid, so they should be able to handle it. Just check with Downstream Adventures beforehand to make sure they’re okay with the age limit for the day you choose.
A: If the weather looks sketchy, Downstream Adventures will usually contact you to discuss rescheduling options. They prioritize safety, so if they think it’s not safe to go out, they'll help you find another date. Just make sure to check their policy when booking.
A: Yes, there's parking available at Pumphouse Campground! It can get busy during peak seasons, so try to arrive early. Just be aware that it's a dirt lot, so maybe drive a vehicle that can handle that if it's been rainy lately.

Considering the Upper Colorado River Float Trip for my boyfriend's birthday!
Hey guys! I’m thinking about getting this half-day float trip for my boyfriend's birthday next month. He loves the outdoors and we’ve been wanting to try some rafting. I saw that it starts at Pumphouse and you get to go through some class I-II rapids, which sounds perfect for us! Just wondering if anyone has done it and what the experience was like?
Rafting on the Upper Colorado River - should I bring snacks?
Thinking about doing the Upper Colorado River float and I’m curious if it’s cool to bring snacks along. I heard the trip is about 5.5 miles long and could take a few hours, so some snacks would be nice! Anyone know if that’s allowed?
