Beautiful, fun float through some dramatic landscape. This is a fun run for anyone looking to have a nice relaxing cruse. This run is all flat water with very little gradient, however the Jet boat that runs regular tours on the river can offer some waves from time to time. The official boat ramps are spread-out pretty good along this stretch but there is a road running along side the river pretty much the entire way. If you are staying at one of the campgrounds along River Road it can be a fun day float to head up stream and float back down to camp.
As you cross under the US 191 bridge you come up on the Moab Uranium Mill Tailing Remedial Action Project (UMTRAP). This is run by the Department of Energy and it is a processing area for mill tailings from the uranium mining that took place from the 1930s to the 1950s throughout this area. You can find out more details by visiting their website.
