Middle Clear Creek is one of the greatest beginner rafting runs in the nation. With numerous rapids and historical significance, it is hard to deny the value. Although Clear Creek holds more rapids than most any other run in the US, the rapids of our Middle section are straight-forward and perfect for families with children or anyone else looking for something a bit easier. Rafters will also catch glimpses of Colorado's rich gold mining history and maybe even a miner or two as they splash down this unique stretch of whitewater.
Free use of wetsuits, splash jackets, helmets, paddles, and personal flotation devices.

One of the best rafting trips we have ever taken. We really lucked out getting Nat as our guide! She was amazing!

Very cool experience. The staff made it super easy, and the safety tips were delivered in a fun manner. Short bus ride to the put-in point. The ride itself was great fun with enough scary moments to keep it very interesting. Our guide Sam was fun and kept us involved in the rowing. He also imparted a lot of info about the history of the area. Can’t wait to try the intermediate run.
