White River Recreation Area

Elevation 5040 feet. A floater's and paddler's paradise, the White River offers some great canoeing, rafting, and limited kayaking with a range of river trips between 24 and 80 miles. The 20 mile shuttle between the Bonanza Bridge and the Enron takeout is on a respectable dirt road. The ride is mostly calm water with a few Class II rapids during spring runoff. Put in at Bonanza Bridge and take out at the Enron Well location. Beware-- numerous large cottonwood trees lie in and occasionally across the river channel. Restrooms only at the take-out.
