2. Mexican Hat to Clay Hills Crossing I-II(III)
River DescriptionOne of the most popular "float" trips in the US. Flowing throught the spectacular undulations of the Goosenecks the San Juan provides wonderful "mini Grand Canyon" multiday paddling trip. Mostly composed of class II rapids there is one class III "Government" that may be interesting for large rafts at flows below 1000cfs. Permits from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) are required to launch. All camping beyond mile 65.8 now requires reservations and failure to reserve a campsite may result in up to a $500 fine!StreamTeam Status: unverified
