Green River Utah Rafting

The river that gave the town of Green River its name is the main attraction of this small town. The river snakes through extremely remote canyons in central Utah north of the town and through red rock canyons south of town before merging with the Colorado River in Canyonlands National Park. From town one can find some good white water rafting as well as peaceful and beautiful float trips. The town of Green River is also a good base from which to explore the starkly beautiful San Raphael Swell to the west. Of note in town is the John Wesley Powell Museum, a good small museum about the explorer.
