Black Canyon Hot Springs and Hoover Dam

Friday-Monday, March 14-17, 2008

Sponsored by the San Diego Natural History Museum

Join us for three days of paddling on the Colorado River where it flows through Black Canyon just below Hoover Dam. Viewing the huge dam from a tiny kayak is quite inspiring.

This is a beautiful stretch of river with Hot Springs, Waterfalls and a Sauna Cave to enjoy. Big Horn Sheep, Bald Eagles and Ospreys also inhabit the area. This is a great paddle to learn to be self-sufficient in a kayak. Participants will be responsible for their own camping gear, food and water.

Costs for this 4-day trip are museum member $370; nonmember $405. Trip package includes round-trip ground transportation from San Diego, kayak, paddling gear, camping fees, shuttle service, Family Kayak Adventure Center instructor/guides and San Diego Natural History Museum naturalist. Both single and double kayaks are available.
