The race is organized by the Rocky Mountain Outdoor School in Carbondale, and traditionally has attracted nationally competitive boaters as well as regional juniors. Water is usually good in the Crystal drainage this time of year.
Spectator viewing is good from a bridge crossing over the course.
CO The second slalom of the Eddie Bauer Whitewater Series, this race attracts top US and international competitors, but is rather unique in that all competitors must use stock, plastic boats. This fast and narrow course has some tight, fun upstreams in its short length. Spectator viewing is excellent with a walkway at water level. These short downriver races over Memorial Day weekend are aimed mainly at rafts. The two-day series includes categories for professional and private boaters.
