A gorgeous Colorado canyon will be raftable for the first time since 2019 thanks to heavy snowpack

But the Dolores is just one of many rivers where the rafting outlook is great this season

The Dolores River in southwest Colorado often has insufficient stream flows for rafting, but there will be enough water this year. The river flows through the high desert of the Colorado Plateau before entering Utah and flowing into the Colorado River near Moab. (Provided by Mild to Wild Rafting and Jeep Tours)
