At our Buena Vista outpost located one hour from Breckenridge, Vail, and Aspen, fly across our 6 line zip course and raft our Browns Canyon whitewater trip. Our zipline course includes a 900-foot dual race line, swinging log bridge, and hanging log staircase. Your heart will pound as you leap from our platforms built into natural features such as rock cliffs and towering old-growth pine trees.  With views of the 14,000-foot Collegiate Peaks Mountain Range, your stomach will drop as you fly across 3,500 feet of cable.  On your second adventure, raft 10 miles on through Browns Canyon on the beautiful Arkansas River. Navigate the class III rapids of the classic Browns Canyon National Monument, paddling through slightly larger waves and faster rapids such as  Zoom Flume and Pinball.

Our guides were Lexie and Tommy and they made our trip so much fun! If you are allowed to request guides, request them if you are looking for music (oldies), singing and dancing while you wait your turn, light-heartedness, history about the area, strong sense of safety, and complete joy. There were 6 ziplines, each with their own unique adventure through the Rocky Mountains. Highly recommend.
