Non profit seeking river permit for August

[Craig Crippen]

Grand Youth Adventures, a Grand county non profit for middle school kids male and female is seeking a permit for the month of Aug. The past three years they've done the main Salmon but this year their contact has not come through. If anyone has a permit they cannot use they are currently seeking options
thanks, CC

depending on what you are looking for you could probably pick up a cataract canyon permit or a weekday launch for westwater and combine it with ruby horsethief (non permit) . i think non profits go about applying for permits the same as a private trip, only you have to mention your affiliation. both mentioned trips will allow for 3-5 nights on the river, as well as some flatwater before encountering rapids, mostly class 3 with a small spice of easy 4. cataract is 90 miles of wilderness and ruby horsethief/westwater is about 40 miles and has a bailout point in the middle, above the rapids if there are issues.
