History of White Water Rafting Colorado Having a much longer history in the U.S.A, white water rafting has its own tales of navigating the swift-moving river going back several centuries beginning with native Americans utilizing the tributaries of the rivers scattering across the region, all the way up to today where Whitewater rafting has proven to be the largest recreational activities in the modern day. 1800's The first recorded trip on the Snake River was planned, with lack of training, experience, and equipment led to the decision about the river being too dangerous to navigate. Today, the class III rapids of the Snake River are popular Whitewater runs in Idaho and Wyoming. 1840-1940 The first rubber was constructed in 1840, in an attempt to survey the Rocky Mountains through the Snake River. It instead was a failed attempt. The rough waters proved to be too much for the raft and the same was destroyed.
Mid 1900's The first rubber rafts used were 8'x27', the float trips carried just 500 people the first year, and demand continues increase as time went by, and the first commercial rafting company emerged in the 1960's and 70's Late 1900's Whitewater rafting was an Olympic event for the first time in 1972. The canoe slalom made its first appearance at the Munich Games. Today White water rafting, today remains the most favoured activity, and increases with popularity in terms of its technology, having no drastic change in the quality of gear.
