Fort
Collins - (970) 493-4005
Rocky
Mountain Adventures' main retail store and offices are located
at the corner of U.S. Highway 287 and Shields Street, just
north of Fort Collins. This site is within easy reach of one
of our most popular rivers, the Cache la Poudre River. It
is from here that we shuttle you to and from your Cache la
Poudre rafting trip. If you fish or kayak with us, we often
have you assemble here as well.
At our
shop, you'll find convenient parking, bathrooms, a place
to change into your river clothes, and an opportunity to purchase
those last minute items like sunglasses, hats, film and sunscreen.
Wet suits are available for rent and you can arrange with
our photography service to capture you blasting through the
rapids. We also have some great t-shirts, sweatshirts, and
other casual outdoor wear.
Our Fort
Collins store is also a full-service paddling shop, complete
with several lines of kayaks and associated paddling gear.
For rafting and kayaking, we stock life jackets, dry tops,
wet suits, booties, paddles, helmets, dry bags, rescue equipment,
first aid supplies, books and many other items.
