Join MNA songwriting residency musicians, Chris Brashear and Peter McLaughlin, for a truly unique musical river experience. The scenic Lower San Juan River provides the perfect combination of relaxing water along with several class II rapids for some excitement. During the day, float through the magnificent Goosenecks, hike in side canyons while watching for desert bighorn sheep along the way. Spend the evenings beneath the stars enjoying music by two premiere western songwriters while reflecting on the day’s journey.
