When is the Best Time to Have a White Water Rafting Birthday Party in Colorado?

Snowmelt in the high-peaks of the Rocky Mountains directly influences water levels in Colorado’s rivers. That being said, big snow years in the mountains make for incredible rafting conditions. To this end, higher flower rates in the river translate to larger rapids and overall, more technical rafting.

Echo Canyon River Expeditions runs trips on the Arkansas River from mid-April through mid-September. The river runs at its highest in the spring and early summer when the most snowmelt is coming out of the Rocky Mountains. As such, more adventurous groups will likely prefer a rafting trip in May or June, while beginners will likely prefer low water levels in July and August.
