Who should go to Whitewater Guide School?
Whitewater guide school is designed to acquaint and train private boaters and potential professional river guides in the organization, safety, skills and wisdom necessary for a successful river journey.
What river guide skills we teach:
We cover all the basics of the white water river experience:
- equipment use
- maintenance and repair
- boat rigging and knot tying
- the reading of water and river hydraulics
- trip logistics, outdoor care procedures
- whitewater emergency and rescue techniques
- the swimming of rapids.
Our focus is on fun, safety, cooperation, team work and personal striving, all in a supportive and friendly environment. A ratio of 4 to 5 students per instructor assures lots of personal attention and hands-on experience.
Our approach is one of due respect to the river and its environment. We promote conservation and a “minimum impact” philosophy of recreational use.
If you love river rafting and are considering buying a boat and striking out on your own, start the season with the training that will enhance your family’s fun and increase your confidence as a boater.
