OCSC SAILING - Rafting Adventure in the Grand CanyonThe Grand Canyon - the heart of the American West

We begin our Grand Canyon journey at Lees Ferry, starting with the slower moving rapids of the Colorado River which will increase each day in size and intensity. In between rapids, the calmer water affords quiet moments of canyon story telling, geologic and natural history, and pure tranquility. This section of the Grand Canyon combines the scenic wonders of the upper canyon's limestone cliffs, Anasazi Indian ruins, fossils, stream-carved alcoves and petroglyphs, with the Lower Canyon's crystalline waterfalls, fern-covered fairyland, layered rock and turquoise pools. On the last morning of the trip, you board a helicopter for the rim and then on to Las Vegas via small plane.
