Join acclaimed photographer John Fielder for a floating Photography Workshop in the Gunnison Gorge. The Gunnison Gorge, below Black Canyon National Park in western Colorado, is a 14 mile wilderness journey with spectacular canyon scenery providing unlimited photography opportunities. A mile hike down the Chuckar Trail brings us to the river and the narrow canyon carved through the polished Protereozoic schist and gneiss formations. Mild rapids punctuate the crystal clear pools on the first day as we enter this secluded retreat. Our isolated camp provides a peaceful refuge to enjoy a sumptuous dinner before our evening workshop class photographing the canyon in the evening light. This canyon combines narrow canyon passages with exciting pool-drop rapids. Depending on the water level, these Class III rapids demand either intricate maneuvering or a wild dash through boat swamping holes and waves. After the rush of whitewater on the last day, the Hall of the River King envelops us in a mystical silence prior to the canyon walls receding to rolling sage hills. Our lunch stop at the Smith Fork provides a fun opportunity to explore the waterfalls and drop pools of this side canyon. The trip concludes at the confluence with the North Fork.
The photographer with an interest in fly fishing will enjoy one of Colorado's finest Gold Medal fisheries dominated by Rainbow and Brown trout. Combining these activities will pack your day with action from dawn till dark.
