Whitewater_Adventure's Blog

Hey everyone! First of all, I would like to apologize for any inconveniences with the site the last couple of days. It's been down, so some may have not been able to reach my blog, unless you navigated your way through myfoxcolorado.com. But things are back to normal today, and I have a lot of work to do. This afternoon, I will post a blog about my trip down the Lower Animas river last weekend. I will also be posting a blog about a trip I did yesterday down the advanced section of Clear Creek. Trust me, you'll want to read this one. But before I do that, here's a look at today's flow numbers:

Arkansas Arkansas River Brown's Canyon III Salida, CO Arkansas Near Nathrop 3160 cfs

I see the Arkansas River is finally coming down a little bit. Hopefully, I will be able to take a trip down that way sometime next week to do a Run on the Royal Gorge. I am also hoping to do a run in the Numbers & Pine Creek sections. The Colorado River is also going down a little bit, but it will be a little while before I'll be able to get down that way and raft Shoshone. And take a look at the Roaring Fork flow number! That river is really flowing right now. Right now, no commercial companies are running trips through that section, just because the water is too big. But I think it will be raftable again, early next week or this weekend. But it looks like all of our rivers and creeks have met peak and levels are on their way back down. What a month!
