FarOut Express: Grand Canyon Whitewater Guide

Official app of GoRafting.com. There are few rivers more fabled than the Grand Canyon of the Colorado. The length of a journey down the canyon, paired with the unbelievable scenery and world-class whitewater make this a bucket-list trip for most boaters. Summer trips offer big whitewater, and searing temperatures. Many private boaters prefer the shoulder seasons when temperatures are moderate, and the whitewater remains plenty big. The commercial rafting season for the Grand is April-October. There are non-commercial permits available during this period, but private boaters will be sharing the river with commercial trips during this period. The Grand Canyon of the Colorado is an intermediate-advanced stretch of river in terms of whitewater difficulty.
