The Cache La Poudre River was first identified by French trappers in the early 18^th century and for thousands of years before that Indians lived and hunted along the River know today as the “Poudre” (Poo-der). The Poudre was designated a National Wild & Scenic River in 1986 and is still Colorado’s only nationally designated Wild & Scenic River. This honor was granted by Congress for Rivers that are still running wild & free and exhibit exceptional scenic beauty. On its way from the snow covered peaks of the Rockies, the Poudre courses through deep forested canyons with rapids rated from mild to wild until its arrival at the Great Plains. It would be our sincere privilege to have you as our guest and show you the wonders of this national jewel.
