Thanks to our great friend, David Abel, and the corona virus schitt-show that gave him time to help us, we have a new website that doesn’t look like it’s straight from the late 1990s. Thanks, David! 

We also have a new guidebook coming for the Dolores River in Colorado and Utah. This is a collaborative venture between RiverMaps and the Dolores River Boating Advocates, who secured funding to publish the book and will receive over 90% of the sales revenue. Josh Munson, DRBA board member and author, went from zero to sixty in learning how a guidebook is put together. He repeatedly commented that it was a lot more work than he thought when he started! Thanks, Josh! You did a great job! The release date is uncertain, but we’ll have it for sale as soon as DRBA makes it available.

We have a new guidebook for the Arkansas River in Colorado! The book covers just over 117 miles of river from Hayden Meadows near Leadville to Cañon City. This includes Pine Creek Rapid, the Numbers, the Fractions, Browns Canyon, the Royal Gorge and all points in between.

We frequently get inquiries about a guidebook for the Dolores River. We have been working with the Dolores River Boating Advocates on a guidebook that willl be published by DRBA and marketed with our assistance. They are soliciting donations to fund publication, and they are also selling a PDF version of their interim booklet on their website. You can find it here.

Check out our coffee cup! If you are like us, you spend more days in the office than you do on the river. That means you probably spend a lot of time with a hot beverage nearby or in your hand. When we decided it was time to come up with some promotional swag, we thought “what better way to put our name in front of folks than with a cup to hold that hot beverage!” But not any cheap cup would do. We didn’t want just a really good cup, no, we wanted a great cup! A cup that would hold almost a pint of that hot beverage. A cup that had great graphics that reflect what we do. A cup that was made in the US of A.

Got a great photo that you think should be published for one of the rivers we cover? Send us an email at the contact link below. You'll get credit for the photo and a free copy of the book if we use your photograph.
