We have taken paddle boards and tubes down the river using two cars. One at the top and one at the bottom. The river is beautiful and there are wild horses along the way. The river gets a bit wild on the weekend but is worth checking out if you want to enjoy the desert landscape or do some fishing. We haven't used the tubing shuttles but this is what most people do.
