Mild to Wild Rafting and Jeep Tours
Discover the spectacular La Plata Canyon (20 minutes West of Durango) and its beautiful U formation created by glaciers on one of our Colorado jeep tours. Several small waterfalls and cascading rivers follow the rugged jeep trails in the springtime along with lots of wildlife such as marmots, mule deer, elk herds, juncos, kingfishers, turkey vultures, red-tailed hawks and bald eagles. On our guided jeep tours you will see numerous wildflowers, high-alpine meadows, and avalanche gullies. Following the La Plata River (meaning “Silver” in Spanish) to La Plata City, an old mining town established in 1875, you’ll discover the remnants of old mining claims. These include a tall intact chimney left from the crew quarters, the framework of old cabins, and tailing piles from actual mining areas. Then, you’ll continue to the peak of Kennebec Pass at 12,000 feet above sea level (also above tree-line).

Rafting doux à sauvage et excursions en jeep
Découvrez le spectaculaire canyon de La Plata (à 20 minutes à l'ouest de Durango) et sa magnifique formation en U créée par les glaciers lors de l'une de nos excursions en jeep dans le Colorado. Plusieurs petites chutes d'eau et rivières en cascade suivent les sentiers de jeep accidentés au printemps, ainsi que de nombreux animaux sauvages tels que des marmottes, des cerfs mulets, des troupeaux de wapitis, des juncos, des martins-pêcheurs, des vautours à tête rouge, des faucons à queue rousse et des pygargues à tête blanche. Lors de nos visites guidées en jeep, vous verrez de nombreuses fleurs sauvages, des prairies de haute montagne et des couloirs d'avalanche. En suivant la rivière La Plata (qui signifie "Argent" en espagnol) jusqu'à La Plata City, une ancienne ville minière fondée en 1875, vous découvrirez les vestiges d'anciennes concessions minières. Ceux-ci comprennent une grande cheminée intacte laissée par les quartiers de l'équipage, la charpente d'anciennes cabines et des tas de résidus provenant de zones minières réelles. Ensuite, vous continuerez jusqu'au sommet du col Kennebec à 12 000 pieds au-dessus du niveau de la mer (également au-dessus de la limite des arbres).

We went on the morning tour and loved every minute of it! Our guide, Jay was awesome! Beautiful views and a fun ride! Take a jacket for the highway ride (about 15-20 minutes)! Highly recommend this tour!

My husband and I booked a 4-hour jeep tour for the morning of the 4th of July. Everyone in the office was so friendly and professional. We arrived early and met Jay who was our driver and guide for the tour. Jay is fantastic, friendly and very informative of the geology and nature of the area. Because of the 416 fire in the Durango area Jay took us on a different trail away from the smoke so that we could enjoy the beauty and not be smoked out. The trail was part of the old stage trail from Silverton to Durango during the 1800s. We saw lily ponds with beaver dams, two bucks and or course a squirrel or two. The mountains in the San Juan mountains are absolutely beautiful and of course the quaking aspen were amazing. Jay was so accommodating to stopping and letting us out to take pictures. And yes Jay and Jerry jokes were corny but funny. Thank you for such a great experience!!!

If it hadn't been for the low water levels and area wild fires this year, we would have taken another rafting tour over Father's Day weekend. The Jeep tour, however, turned out to be a fabulous alternative and we are so glad we had the chance to experience it. There are so many old mining areas tucked around the mountains, and each Jeep tour takes its own path. The experience revolves around your individual guide's knowledge and enthusiasm. We adored Jared, who talked fluidly about the flora and fauna of the region, the geology, mining processes, and the history of the companies in the region -- how they lured workers to cross the country (and in some cases the world) to join the mining effort, as well as some of the famous strikes and famous disasters. Over the course of the trip, he picked wild flowers, identifying each one and arranging a bouquet for us to take back to the hotel. I loved that we could get out and walk around the ruins -- nothing was fenced or roped off, so you could stand right on the foundations, say, of an old the miners' boarding house. What a tremendous walk through history. As we got higher up, the scenery became spectacular. My daughter "borrowed" my camera and never gave it back! It was a wonderful day.

Glad you enjoyed your ride through history on our Durango Jeep Tour with Jared. It is amazing what the Colorado Mountains have to share! Thanks for sharing your experience. We are having fun on the river rafting too...we missed you on the river.
