Blue River rafting season looking dismal

For Colorado rafting enthusiasts who prefer Summit County’s Blue River the current season could be a bust, Kevin Foley, owner of Performance Tours Rafting said last week.

Low water means there s only a 10% chance of commercial raft trips on the Blue River this summer

Photo from Performance Tours Rafting Performance Tours Rafting owner Kevin Foley said Tuesday, June 1, that there’s a 10% chance there will be commercially raftable flows on the Blue River north of Silverthorne later this month. Foley said that estimate is based on recent conversations he’s had with the Denver Water board, which manages the water in Dillon Reservoir. Foley said commercial rafting operations like Performance Tours only send out guided trips if river flows are a minimum of 500 cubic feet per second. Foley said in the slight chance the river runs fast enough, it would likely start in the third week of June and only be for a few days or up to a week.

Commercial rafters unsure how much Blue River will run next month

Kevin Foley, president of Performance Tours Rafting, said Friday, May 14, that recent reports he has received from Denver Water indicate the organization is likely to prioritize filling the Dillon Reservoir. “What we are being told is, right now, the reservoir is low and snowpack is below average, so their model this year going to be more fill and spill,” Foley said.
