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).

I didn't really expect to have as much fun as my wife and I had when we took this tour. We showed up, and were the only ones on the tour, so it was just us, and our guide Dave. We set off on the tour in the open air jeep, barreling down the highway to the La Plata canyon. I had forgotten how fun it was to ride in the open air, wind blowing in your face! Once we hit the canyon, we were just blown away with the natural beauty of the canyon. Be advised, the roads get increasingly rough the higher into the canyon you go- tighten your seatbelts! The ride takes you above 12,000 feet, so bring a jacket! The views were simply outstanding- you get beautiful views of the Needles, and Engineer mountain. Dave was an outstanding guide, very engaging and knowledgeable of the area. Well done, Dave! We didn't quite make it to the highest point of the tour, as there was still too much snow on the ground, and as a result we had to back down the trail about 3/4 mile so he could turn around. It was a beautiful, exciting tour, and worth every penny. Thank you for taking such good care of us. It was a high point of our trip. Notes- Bring water and snacks- Dave had some of both, not sure if that is standard or not. He also had extra jackets, but it doesn't hurt to bring your own. Go to the bathroom when you hit the canyon- it'll be 3 hours before you have another chance!
