An early morning prepares you for your longest day on the river as you float through Island and Rainbow Parks and then run the many rapids of Split Mountain Canyon. You'll arrive at Split Mountain Boat Ramp around 3:00 on the last day and then take a short bus ride (40 minutes) back to the Microtel; arrival time should be between 4:00 and 5:00 on the last day.
