As one of Nebraska's biggest cities, Omaha has its share of urban sprawl, but spend a little time in town and find museums, pleasant parks, plenty of places to tuck into for an Omaha steak and somewhat unexpectedly, an indoor rainforest.
Located deep within the remote, rugged scenic splendor of Canyonlands National Park and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area is Cataract Canyon. Cataract Canyon contains some of the best whitewater in the country, especially during spring run-off. The so-called "graveyard of the Colorado" has 26 substantial rapids from Class 3 to 4+.
No river has captured people's hearts and imaginations like the mighty Colorado River and her tributaries. The spectacular scenery, the uncrowded splendor of the river, the solitude of the canyons, a journey back in time. Join us for an adventure that will indeed change your life and provide a glowing sense of pleasure that is hard to find anywhere in today's high pressure world.
