The Colorado River begins its long journey to the sea in the northern
Colorado Rockies at Rocky Mountain National Park. In Colorado, there are
many whitewater sections and slow moving float sections suitable for river
rafting on the Colorado River. Some of the best are shown here.
The Colorado River is the 7th longest river in the U.S. at 1450 miles. It
flows through Colorado, Utah, Arizona and Mexico before it's final
destination in the Pacific Ocean at the Gulf of California.
