“Of all the wacky, niche-level, outdoor adventures I’ve dabbled in over the years, the bike and boat combination has always been the one that scratched my creative adventure itch best. The Bikeraft Guide, about what’s now called “bikerafting,” came in the mail yesterday and was a delight to look at, browse through and read. This book really does a great job of showcasing what bikerafting is and can be, as well as educating on how to do it. An ace kayaker once told me that the outdoor adventure community is like a big tapestry that each generation adds to with new patterns, colors, and blends. The Bikeraft Guide documents how the current outdoor adventure generation has contributed.” ~Roman Dial
“The River of Our Lady of Sorrows, the Dolores River, was named ‘El Rio de Nuestra Senora de Dolores’ when a Spanish trader encountered the river in 1765. But in many ways, the only sorrowful thing about the Dolores River is that like so many rivers in the West, it is, perhaps, too well loved, resulting in chronically low flows. Recently introduced National Conservation Area legislation has brought the Dolores River back into the spotlight.” (American Whitewater) And an approximately 150% snowpack has brought back boatable flows at least for April-June 2023. Join Four Corners Guides on a packrafting course on the Dolores River this spring/summer.
