COLORADO SERENADE

[93Regina]

Millions of visitors come to Grand Canyon National Park, one of the
seven natural wonders of the world and the most visited national park
in the western United States. However, very few ever get to experience
the Grand Canyon by way of the Colorado River. Stretching from Lees
Ferry at Marble Canyon, AZ, through the inner gorge graced with
geology dating as far back as 1.8 billion years, all the way to
Diamond Creek, just before the river gives way to Lake Mead, these
spectacular 225 miles of whitewater rafting are only accessible by
guided commercial motor trips and private rafting permits. Although
over 6M visitors come to the Grand Canyon every year, only a small
fraction gets permission to raft the river, mainly during the late
Spring, Summer and early Fall months.
