Looking for a very lazy day or two on the river with easy access, and great scenery? Floating from Moab to Potash on the Colorado River might be just the ticket. The float, about 17 miles, is flat water, and class I. This makes for an easy, family friendly float that can be done in one day, or a very casual 2 days.

If it weren't for distraction of the Potash road following the river, this would likely be considered a classic. As is, if you can block out the road noise, it is an great time out. If doing it in 2 days, Gold Bar makes a good camping point, and is easily accessible by car for spotting gear if desired.
