Vail, Colorado has had whitewater events for many years and is renowned for it's excellent conditions, however, large events such as the Teva Mountain Games took place just outside of town on the Eagle River. Since 2002 the Vail Valley Chamber and Bureau has become amenable to freestyle paddling so whitewater rafting can take place in Vail Village.
