Rocky Mountaineer - Colorado River trip

 While in Moab we took a calm water boat trip on the Colorado River, no rapids and such, just cruising down the river enjoying the scenery.

We put in just downstream from Moab and went almost to the start of Canyonlands. You are not allowed past the point without a river permit, that is where the river starts to get wild.

We stopped several places along the river including Thelma & Louise point where they filmed the last scene of the movie.

At one point we stopped for a short hike up the canyon wall to see petrified wood and other interesting things.

 

On our way back up river we passed several groups of rafts heading downriver to run the river thru Canyon Lands national park.
