Floating the Santa Cruz River in inflatable kayaks

The upper Santa Cruz River in Arizona is navigable by boat! The boats (IKs) are smaller than full rafts and float in a few inches of water. We had to drag occasionally and be careful of debris, but were able to float several miles of the Rio Santa Cruz!

This stretch has flows, which are supported by effluent from a sewage treatment plant in Nogales, AZ.
