Arkansas River -
Wildhorse Canyon - Moderate to advanced, Class III+
A fantastic, secluded section of Adventure Class Whitewater
that is pretty much non-stop action, especially at higher water levels.
The rapids here tend to be more continuous with fewer eddies than in Brown's.
Enjoy great views of the high peaks along with the challenges of Frog Rock
Rapid, Little Seidel's, and House Rock with some sections as narrow as 12 feet!
Great step up for those who have run Brown's Canyon a lot. Deluxe full day
trip starts in Wildhorse and continues on through Brown's Canyon and
includes a delicious riverside steak lunch. Just north of Buena Vista.
Minimum age-12.

Arkansas River -
Overnight Trips
2 and 3 day trips:
Nothing matches the experience of an overnight Arkansas River
rafting and camping trip. There is nothing better for a family wanting to spend
some quality time together than a multi-day rafting trip.
Two-Day Wildhorse Canyon/Browns Canyon: Our
two-day rafting and camping trip combines both Wildhorse Canyon and Browns
Canyon. We spend the first day in Wildhorse Canyon, camp in the mouth of Browns
Canyon, and run Browns on the second day. At camp your guides will fix
delicious riverside meals leaving you plenty of time to fish, hike, or just
relax. Evenings are spent around the campfire singing songs and telling family
stories as the river flows by. Meals include lunch and dinner the first day and
breakfast and lunch on the second day.
Three-Day Options: Four Corners also offers a three-day
trip if you want to spend another fun-filled day on the river and another great
night in camp. Our three-day Arkansas River rafting trip is the same as our
standard two-day trip but starts with a great section of water further down the
river called Bighorn Sheep Canyon. The rapids in Bighorn Sheep Canyon are very
similar to Browns Canyon and your campsite the first evening will be vehicle
served. A three-day white water rafting trip is a fantastic family bonding
experience.
For those wanting to kick the whitewater up a notch, we offer the
option of running a Numbers half-day or a Royal Gorge full-day on day three. We
will camp the second night in a vehicle-serviced campsite and then drive to
either section. Meals include lunch and dinner on the first day, breakfast,
lunch and dinner on the second and breakfast and lunch on day three.
Minimum age-12 for standard three-day, 16 for Royal Gorge or
Numbers.
Deluxe Two-Day Trip: A luxurious, all-inclusive two-day
raft trip! All the comforts of home on the river. Spend a leisurely evening in
a comfortable riverside camp. Sleep in deluxe two person tents. Not backpacking
style tents, but full size family-style tents with room to stand up and plenty
of room to stretch out. Meals prepared by your guides will be hearty and
delicious. Small group size will ensure a level of service impossible on large
trips. Experience the Four Corners Deluxe difference! Minimum
age-12.
