About this Salida River Adventures Trip
Tackle seven miles of nonstop whitewater on the Arkansas River with a run through “The Numbers,” a local kayaker favorite.
At lower flows this stretch becomes a technical playground of Class IV rapids, demanding constant maneuvering, precise line choices, and quick reflexes as you thread through waves, holes, and rocky constrictions. Paddlers will find a constant sequence of moves that rewards skill, focus, and boat control.
When flows rise, the character shifts—big waves and powerful hydraulics turn the river into a high‑adrenaline playground. Expect heart‑pounding drops, long wave trains that offer big rides and challenge even seasoned paddlers.
Whether you’re honing advanced whitewater technique at low water or chasing massive rides at high water, The Numbers delivers sustained, intense action over its full seven miles. This run is best suited for experienced paddlers and adrenaline seekers prepared for continuous exertion, dynamic conditions, and the reward of an unforgettable river day.
