Lower Gila Box 5-Day Trip
Ages 8+ • March-October • Easy Trip!
What to Expect
Miles below the mountain peaks of the Gila Wilderness, the character of the river changes dramatically. As it enters the Gila Box National Riparian Conservation area its banks are lined with cottonwoods, creosote and large barrel cactus. High canyon walls of sandstone, basalt and conglomerate rise up and then fall away as you weave your way through tight, tree-lined rapids and explore crystal clear side streams. One can expect a bump in river flow after the confluence with the Rio San Francisco, meaning that this trip can be either fantastic standalone adventure or a great (and warmer) three or four day alternative when the Gila Wilderness is too low.
No prior experience necessary and we welcome participants of 8 years of age and older. We ask that participants be prepared for the rigors of kayaking/canoeing, rafting, camping, hiking, and possible swimming.
Individual inflatable kayak, canoe, and oar-boats will be available. Some options are water flow dependent
