Perfect Antidote For Summer Vacations That Seem Too Dry

04-18-2011

 Dvorak's Raft, Kayak and Fishing Expeditions Provide Perfect Antidote For Summer Vacations That Seem Too Dry

 

From May through September Colorado's Arkansas River Valley

Offers Multitude of Multi-Sport Adventure Vacation Opportunities

 

NATHROP, CO, Apr 18, 2011 ˆ Legendary Colorado outfitter Bill Dvorak knows how to spice up a boring vacation. He‚s been at it for well over 40 years. From his base of operations in the upper Arkansas River Valley, Dvorak‚s Expeditions (http://www.dvorakexpeditions.com/) may specialize in recreation in and around the river but a fast-growing vacation trend now includes activities away from the water as well.

 

Couples, friends and families looking for flexibility and variety have discovered Dvorak‚s Arkansas Valley multi-sport combinations. Selecting activities (similar to a Chinese menu), vacationers can now plan an escape from a single day to over a week that includes guided activities such as rafting, horseback riding, mountain biking, rock climbing, fly-fishing, four wheel drive safaris and bagging a 14,000-foot peak.

 

„While we‚ve become known worldwide for our exceptional rafting trips, it seems like more and more people are now looking for more than just whitewater thrills on vacation. It has allowed us to get creative and utilize all the wonderful recreational opportunities that exist in our little slice of Rocky Mountain heaven,‰ says Bill Dvorak, owner, head guide and outfitter.

 

As Dvorak explains, most people start out with a half to three-day overnight paddle trip on the Arkansas River and then add on other activities to build a custom adventure that ends up being 5 to 7 days long. Participants can even choose how much „roughing‰ it they want to do at night. Evening accommodations can be arranged to include a local bed and breakfast, a variety of motels, a resort cabin, lodge or camping.

 

Being the local experts, Dvorak Expeditions can arrange for visits to area hot springs, set up an appointment with a massage therapist, guide guests on a 4x4 tour of nearby ghost towns, or show the proper techniques of fly-fishing with a seasoned pro. The Arkansas River offers some of the best rated blue ribbon trout waters in the state.

 

For rock climbers, the Collegiate Peaks of Mount Shavano (14,229‚), Princeton (14,204‚), Harvard (14,421‚), Columbia (14,077‚) and Yale (14,200‚) beckon and frame the valley to the west.

 

Average costs begin at $142 per person for a full day to $998 per person for a five day multi-sport adventure.  Youth, group, military and senior discounts are also available.
