| Eagle River is divided into two sections, the upper and lower rivers. The upper section is wild whitewater with only a couple of chances to relax in between rapids. This section is classified as class IV, and features the Dowd chute section of the river. This fast moving section with continuous rapids is only 10 minutes away from Vail and Beaver Creek. The Dowd Chute is for the more adventurous and experienced rafter. This quarter-mile stretch of river located in Dowd Junction is the most aggressive part of the river. The constriction of the banks creates the chute that you will blast through. This is a physically demanding trip. Good physical condition is recommended and a minimum age of 15 years is required. |
