4 Corners Expeditions -
Experience the worlds finest whitewater river with a safe and professional 1, 2
or 3 day guided raft or kayak trip on the class V Upper Animas in incredible
Silverton CO. Private boaters don't normally use commercial companies, however,
when it comes to the Upper Animas, many private boaters do not have the
experience or equipment to run such a difficult and continuous stretch of
whitewater - and would be missing out if they let pride get in the way - it
really is the best whitewater river in the West. Specifically the Upper Animas
and Siberia are not to be missed! We do offer raft supported guided kayak trips
on the Upper Animas for those with the skill but maybe want someone to carry
their stuff and show them the lines.
Lodging Victorian home in Salida, Colorado, which I rent on a temporary basis (nightly, weekly, monthly), and may be of interest to those who like to boat the Arkansas. House website: http://www.salidarental.com. It's a great house, and the Albuquerque boating community would love it. It's a five minute walk to downtown Salida. Ken Konopka
