 On August 25th, join RiversEdge West and local river experts for our annual Raft the River trip, a one-day float trip and dinner along the Colorado River in Fruita, Colorado from 3:00~7:30. We'll be floating from Rimrock Adventures to the Loma Boat Ramp. We typically spend about 1.5-2 hours on the water and make two stops on the riverbank to hear from guest speakers along the way. These short talks from local river experts will give you a behind-the-scenes look at the river restoration happening along the river and may also include discussions about the tamarisk beetle, fish, and wildlife. After spending time on the river you will arrive back to Rimrock Adventures for dinner, live music by Shaun Ray, prizes, and drinks donated by local restaurants such as Cafe Sol, Barons Bar and Grill, and Copper Club Brewing Company. RiversEdge West and Rimrock Adventures take care of everything (guided float, shuttles, raft guides, dinner, drinks, music), all you need to do is show up! The cost is $100 for non-members, $85 for RiversEdge West members. Seats are limited and tickets typically sell out, so be sure to reserve your space in advance! Registration will close on August 10, 2018. All proceeds go to RiversEdge West's programs that are restoring rivers to a healthier, more vibrant state throughout the West.
