We have rafted with Monumental Expeditions for a number years, ever since we met them launching rafts at the Ruby Mountain campground years ago. This is a smaller, family run outfit that is very friendly, and has always served our family's rafting needs well. Nice to support a local Arkansas Valley business.

Monumental Expeditions took great care of us rafting down the Arkansas River. Our guide, Adam, was knowledgeable and genuinely interested in making our trip safe, exciting and fun! We will definitely book with them again.

Adam was a great guide sharing his experience with our group. Monumental Expeditions is a small outfit which makes it great. No waiting for 6-10 rafts to get ready or waiting on the river for laggard rafts from the same outfit. In and out of the river in minutes and ridding the river by ourselves. Highly recommended.
We are located at the beautiful Chalk Creek campground in Nathrop, Colorado. Conveniently close to Browns Canyon National Monument between Buena Vista and Salida, Colorado. Started in 2015, Monumental Expeditions builds on the experience of 25 seasons running rafting trips on the Arkansas River and other rivers of the West and Northwest. We use that hands-on knowledge to run a company that goes beyond the average outfitter. Special attention is paid to the guest experience and safety on the river. Our goal is to offer you the most memorable and special trip out there. Our small size allows us to cater trips specifically to our guests. Don't hesitate to contact us with any questions or special requests.
