a self guided trip, 12 miles down the colorado river, you put in just below the Hoover dam, it's an impressive spot to put in.

Did this trip with wife and brother in law, at thanksgiving while hanging in vegas.

we went on several hikes up adjacent slot canyons along the way, went in several hot springs, saw tons of birds, and a pair of falcons, one shows up flying overhead at the end of the video.

we rented kayaks from kayaklasvegas, they take you and your rig into secure areas below the dam, drop you off, and you are on your own.
it's a way cool trip, highly recommended.

Looks like an ad for a travel company doesn't it?

Great video. Looks like a great time.

It looks really good for being shot a thousand years ago. ;)

Nice. And nice job on the video. As CraigB alluded, almost looks like a promotion video.
 
Few questions:
1. Do they pick you up at the end?
2. How long do they allow you to get there? Day trip, overnight?
3. Do the kayaks have back support?
4. I assume its bring your own (food, water, beer, etc).
