10 miles
class I
divisions for canoes & sea kayaks

The Dotsero to Hanging Lake Race will be on Sunday August 22nd.
Registration will begin at 6:30 at the put-in, shuttle leaving 7:00, races start 8:00

Entry fee is $10 per person CASH!

The Dotsero launch is on the SE corner of the old hwy 6/ Green Bridge over the Colorado River at Dotsero. Take I-70 west to exit 133 and follow the frontage road.

Hanging Lake is a rest area inside Glenwood Canyon. It’s currently closed, but will re-open around August 1st.

Prizes for each division are all entry fees + $100, split 50-30-20 for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place

There is also a prize drawing with over $500 worth of paddling goodies, with all race participants names drawn out of the hat for that drawing. Prizes often include good paddles, PFD’s, guidebooks, drybags, throwbags, and assorted odds and ends. Even if you don’t win a cash prize, you’ll probably win something in the drawing (lots of prizes, first name pulled chooses first and we keep pulling names until we run out of prizes or names).

Annual race on the Colorado River from Dotsero to Hanging Lake Rest Area in Glenwood Canyon

Date: August 23, 2009 (Sunday)

The annual 10 mile race from Dotsero to Hanging Lake rest area on the Colorado River organized by Jerry Nyre (Canoe Colorado) took place on August 24, 2008. I didn’t race this year due to wrist tendonitis (more related to my computer work than paddling).
