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.
This segment of the Colorado River, nicknamed the "Colorado River Daily," is an easy whitewater section. It is the most popular section of the river as it is easily accessible from Moab and flows through beautiful canyon scenery.

Additional Details
For most of the year, the 6 rapids in this section are ClassI and II and can be handled by reasonably competent rafters, canoeists and kayakers without a guide. During spring run-off (mid-May to mid-June), however, the rapids grow to ClassIII (and occasionally ClassIV) and should only be attempted by experienced parties. There are places to pull off, relax and enjoy a picnic lunch along the way. Camping is permitted, but only at designated campsites (marked with a wooden stake).
