Fall Rafting Options

Fall is in the air! The beautiful aspens scattered throughout the state are beginning to paint a beautiful scene, and the temperatures are continually adding a chill to the air. Football has begun and it’s about time to trade your chacos out for sorels. Despite the end of summer, there are still plenty of opportunities to raft before the snow begins to fall. AVA Rafting & Zipline is prepared to offer fall rafting trips through October! All you have to do is pick the best trip for you.
