The SSV Confluence to Picnic Grounds river run in Colorado is a Class III-IV whitewater rafting experience that features several challenging obstacles, including the S-Turn Rapid and the Pinball section. The best time of year to float this section of water is from May to June, when the water levels are high and the rapids are at their most intense. Recommended flow rates range from 500-1000 cfs. This section of the river is not recommended for inexperienced rafters or those who are not comfortable with more challenging rapids.
