White Water Rafting the Poudre River

This is my family (Mom, Dad, and an Aunt and Uncle and their daughters) rafting in early June on the Poudre River located just west of Fort Collins, CO.  It was a wild 10 mile rafting trip!!!  They had record high levels of water that summer due to a larger than average snow fall in the mountains.  This created very strong rapids.  We hit Class II, III, and IV rapids on this trip.  My Aunt and cousin ended up getting thrown out of the raft, but we managed to retrieve them quickly and safely back into the raft fast.  The trip is guided and it was the wildest rafting experience I have had in Colorado.  Would definately recommend this to anyone visiting Colorado.
