Your trip begins at the Marble Canyon Lodge, in Arizona, where you spend the first night preparing for your trip. You meet your guide at 8:30 PM for an orientation meeting where you can ask questions and get any last minute items. You can also purchase beer and wine at Marble Canyon.
The following morning around 8:30 AM you pack your duffel bag and depart for Lees Ferry where the boats will be waiting for you. After your bags are packed on the boat everybody gets on and your rafting trip begins.
For the next five days you will run exciting rapids like Houserock, Hance, Sockdolager, Hermit, Granite Falls, Crystal, and Lava Falls, and see beautiful side canyons and swimming holes including Little Colorado, Elves Chasm, Deer Creek and Havasu Creek. Each morning you will be greeted by the beautiful song of the Canyon Wren and the smell of hot coffee brewing in the kitchen. Your guide will prepare you a hot breakfast every morning which includes fresh fruit and fruit juice. For lunch you will have sandwiches with all the trimmings. Tour West provides cold water and lemonade at all times as well as candy bars and fruit for snacks during the day. At night all your gear will be unloaded, this includes your personal duffel bag and your cot. While you are setting up your camp your guide will be preparing a hearty dinner of steak and potato or halibut and wild rice. Each dinner also has a vegetable with a fresh tossed salad and your choice of dressing. After dinner you are free to explore the canyon or sit on your cot and watch a beautiful sunset and listen to the music of the river.
On the sixth morning you arrive at Whitmore Wash around 8:00 AM where you will meet by helicopter and flown up to the Bar 10 Ranch where you will meet your plane and be returned to Las Vegas or Marble Canyon.
