When the entire series has been completed it will include 41 detailed river maps, covering approximately 158 miles of river from the Chuck Lewis State Wildlife Area upstream of Steamboat Springs to the Deerlodge Park boat ramp on the eastern boundary of Dinosaur National Monument.

With the publication of the Lily Park Reach guide in October 2026, only the Cross Mountain Canyon guide remains to be completed. I’ll be working on that guide this coming winter, and would be very interested in any accounts of early descents, or photographs (historic or recent) that you might have to share. Thanks!
