Guides on the Colorado River, San Juan River and Virgin River were dealing with guests changing bookings, cancelling visits and adjusting itineraries due to low flows. One river outfitter extended its two longest trips by a day to compensate for the lower flows and allow guests to enjoy hiking opportunities.
