Green

Following our annual board meeting in Golden, Colorado several members of the American Whitewater board and staff, and a couple friends, gathered for a trip on the Yampa River that continued on to this section of the Green River. Conditions were cold and wet. Flow on the Green River varied between 8500 and 9000 cfs. Launching from Deerlodge on the Yampa on Day 1, we reached Echo Park and the Green River around 1pm on Day 3. We camped at Jones Creek and hiked up the creek that afternoon. On Day 4 we paddled downstream and through the Split Mountain Canyon, arriving at the Split Mountain Boat Ramp around 2:30 pm on Day 4. This Trip Report represents the second half of the trip on the Yampa with a report on the preceeding 3 days on the Yampa River page.
