GOLDEN, Colo. - Heavy rains have Colorado rivers running high. That's good news if you like rapids.
7 NEWS was in Golden on Friday, as kayakers braved whitewater for the 5th Annual Golden Games.
The Golden Games host three days of whitewater kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, fly fishing and slack lining events for both pros and beginners. Event organizer Troy Harcourt says the event is a great way to showcase all the outdoor activities available in Golden this season.
"All these rapids along the whitewater park in Golden are man-made but they are really fun and really great for beginners all the way to the most advanced paddlers," Harcourt said.
The event begins Friday, May 15, and ends Sunday, May 17, and is free to the public.
