A fun outdoor learning adventure for moderately active adults. We take a leisurely pace and get you involved! This popular stretch is famous for world class archeological rock art panels and cliff dwelling sites as well as spectacular geological features.

Short side hikes explore Ancestral Puebloan, Navajo and Mormon pioneer dwellings and 300 million year old fossils! This stretch of the San Juan offers scenic floating, small rapids and incredibly diverse views and features in just 26 miles.

CFI Naturalist guides are expert educators and licensed river guides and will share their knowledge and passion for this San Juan country with you.

First night orientation at 7 PM followed by overnight stay at Recapture Lodge in Bluff, UT. Full-time camping next 3 nights. Begins and ends in Bluff.

A great trip that will be a gentle interaction with the outdoors. Join us and experience the paradox of this dry red rock country split by a shimmering ribbon of life-giving water. Experience the pleasures of sleeping under the stars and taking a turn in the inflatable kayaks if you choose.

You can expect pleasant temperatures and lovely fall light. We might get a short thunderstorm to provide drama and colorful sunset.

We provide delicious and creative, healthy meals for meat eaters and vegetarians alike and purchase locally as much as possible. You just need to bring your own tent and sleeping bag and pad though we have high quality rentals available. Our trips are "participatory" in nature; you are included in camp life and try your hand at dutch oven cooking!

Call if you have questions regarding the nature of the activity and comfort. We have hosted a variety of ages and groups (schools, Elderhostel, board groups, etc.). With a balanced focus on learning and fun, our pace allows for plenty of time to explore, learn, enjoy solitude and relax.
