Upper Animas
Two Day Trip
About This Trip
THIS TRIP IS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE. SEE OUR NEEDLETON Campout Trip FOR AVAILABLE UPPER ANIMAS TRIPS.
Conquer non-stop Class II and III rapids with intermittent Class IV and Class V rapids on this spectacular two day Colorado whitewater rafting trip! Creeks and streams cascade into the Upper Animas River as you continuously paddle.
Relax in our deluxe, exclusive 5-star camp in the Weminuche Wilderness as our guides prepare your dinner (and breakfast!) and prepare for your second day of more spectacular whitewater. At high water, this trip is considered extreme.
The Two Day gets you two amazing days of Upper Animas Whitewater and a night around the campfire, but on the Three Day, you also get a layover day to explore all the wonders of the wilderness!
