Lower Colorado River Canoe Trip

LASN’s Adventure Club would like to invite you this fall on an EPIC adventure down the Lower Colorado River filled with canoeing, camping, hiking, challenges, games and more!

This Colorado River canoe trip will be a retreat style weekend as we relax and enjoy the great outdoors while cruising down the slow moving Lower Colorado River. At times you will float, at times you will paddle. We will stop at sand bars to compete in games and make pit stops to hike. There’s a ton of fun packed into 3 whole days on this beautiful river!

This canoe trip for adults will begin on Friday morning (October 9th) so all Adventurers will be expected to reach our drop in point at some point on Thursday night (October 8th). We will set up a caravan of vehicles leaving Los Angeles on Thursday for those interested. Exact time and location of pick-up/drop-off site will be announced as we get closer to the date. Come join one of the LASN Adventure Club’s most popular legacy outdoor adventure trips!

Trip Itinerary

Day 1 

Rendezvous and meet your fellow Adventurers at the drop-in point in Blythe, CA.  Enjoy a night of river-front camping under the stars before the Colorado River canoe trip begins in the morning.

Day 2

Following breakfast, we will pack up the canoes and drop onto the river for a full day of canoeing, floating, exploring some of the local mines and river inlets, and other outdoor adventures. We’ll also enjoy fun and games on sandbars as we make our way down river. We will camp for the night at Walters Camp on the Arizona side of the river. After setting up camp, we’ll enjoy a delicious dinner and fun around the campfire before settling in for the night.

Day 3

We will once again travel down river exploring along the way and stopping for short hikes and games on the river’s sandbars. As part of this canoe trip for adults, we will camp right on the river for the night at the 4H Beach Camp and will enjoy a riverfront dinner and campfire.

Day 4

We will begin our final day of the Colorado River canoe trip under the cover of darkness as we depart at 5am to enjoy the spectacular star-lit sky before an epic sunrise over the river. We’ll finish the morning with a 10 mile paddle & float and reach our take out point around 2pm. We’ll enjoy a refreshing shower before enjoying a celebratory meal at Fisher’s Landing before departing for Los Angeles.
