Camping On The Colorado River at Fish Ford
Camping On The Colorado River at Fish Ford
There's primitive camping near Cisco known as Fish Ford. Access is easy the roads are smooth. I've camped at Fish Ford several times and I like it. There's a boat ramp, nice camping spots, and a potty. However, there are coyotes around. On one of the trips, coyotes came very close but didn't mess with us.
They can run up to 40 MPH when chasing prey. Coyotes are frequent communicators who growl, bark, wail, huff, yelp, squeal, and howl. hitchwiki.org
Beginner Friendly River Rafting
This is a beginner-friendly river rafting route. The scenery is nice and the water is nice. We saw bald eagles and small river wildlife. Each time we floated this section headwinds were slowing us down.
It's a long float. When you get to Dewey Bridge you'll want to get to the left quickly after passing under the bridge. This is the Dewey Bridge boat landing.

Shuttling or Hitchhiking
By strict definition, hitchhiking appears to be illegal in Utah. However, many people successfully hitchhike every year. Hitchhikers typically leave their cars at the takeout point. After a long float, you want your car. Cold, tired, and sun burnt is not the time to hitchhike.
Car Shuttle: Leave a car at Dewey Bridge and shuttle in separate vehicle rafts and people to either Cisco or Fish Ford Boat Launch.
