GRAND CANYON RIVER RATINGS
CLASS I – X: The Grand Canyon uses a unique river rating scale. The rapids in the Canyon are technically rated I – X ( 1 – 10) to accommodate such a wide variety of rapids and river variances. However, most people are familiar with the regular I – V river rating scale, so we often refer to both.
Overview
Why not combine the awe-inspiring Grand Canyon with the powerful, exhilarating Colorado River to create the ideal western trip? The Grand Canyon river tour is the premier white water rafting trip in the American West. The eight-night Grand Canyon river tour covers the entire length of the Grand Canyon, beginning at Lee’s Ferry and ending at Lake Mead. This trips combines world class white water with breathtaking scenery to make one unforgettable river experience.

At the orientation meeting you will receive some of the gear you will use on the river such as a dry bag which you will load your personal bag into.
You are on your own for your dinner this night and breakfast the next morning. There is a small restaurant located at Marble Canyon.
Days 2 - 6A van provided by Marble Canyon Lodge will pick you up in front of the motel in the morning and transport you 6 miles to Lee’s Ferry where you will meet your guides and launch on your river trip.
