Salida got several inches of wet, heavy spring snow and rain over the weekend, making for a pretty murky Arkansas River. But it’s clearing up gorgeously, and this could be our greenest spring in a while! The sun is back out and melting everything off nicely, so the trails should be ride-able by Wednesday. Come play in Salida this weekend! Book directly on StayinSalida.com to get the best deal on your stay!
Low Water Rescue!
The Arkansas River is running between 300 and 400 csf these days, which is exceptionally low for this time of year. This family float needed a little help from a bystander getting across the rocks and into the current at The Drift In. Local experts say that even with the low water conditions, the river should be able to maintain flows of around 300 csf throughout the rafting season.
