Sailing down the Colorado River in a day is challenging and depends on the section you choose and your mode of transportation. For example, the Grand Canyon stretch is extensive and typically requires several days to navigate safely due to its length and rapids. In contrast, shorter sections, like those near Glen Canyon or Lee's Ferry, might be more manageable within a day for experienced paddlers. Always consider water conditions and local regulations before embarking on such a journey.
Jacques Cartier sailed to present day Quebec and the St. Lawrence River.
08/01/10: Yes it is! The Colorado is a long river. I happen to own a lake house along the Colorado River in Texas - specifically Lake LBJ (West of Austin) on the Colorado river. Just today, while riding a jet ski, I happened upon a dying alligator gar who was still alive at the water's surface. They are prevalent, but seldom seen during the day.

The Mississippi River is IN North Amercia and Columbus NEVER landed on North America. He didn't have clue that it was there or that it existed. He thought he was in India until the day he died. It is De Soto that found the Mississippi.
