Our greatest resource
is our Staff and how they run our specialty trips.
They bring the best out of people while we live together
for three days, in a setting that hasn't changed much for
millions of years.
Our guides know how to be flexible and allow the
trip to form its own unique community. We have lots of fun while
making safety our prime mission. It's a skill that has evolved
over the past 21 years of leading trips.
Your guides are experienced, competent individuals,
who have spent many years leading groups and acquiring their wilderness
skills. They have completed at least 24 hours of Wilderness First
Aid and CPR and hold current American Red Cross first-aid and
CPR cards. All guides have over 1000 miles of guiding river experience.
They share a genuine love of canoeing and the great outdoors.
If expanding your paddling skills appeals to you, our guides take
pride in teaching advanced river techniques.
