Whitewater Rafting Guide Training

Tyler, our Operations Manager -and relative newlywed- is recently back from the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon.  He participated in an O.A.R.S.’ sponsored Wilderness First Responder course from Lees Ferry to Phantom Ranch.  (O.A.R.S. whitewater rafting guides are reliable, responsible, experienced and committed to enhancing your safety.  All are qualified in CPR and First Aid and many earn their credentials in wilderness first responder, swift water rescue and Leave No Trace.)

He claims perfect weather, 9000-12000 cfs, great instructors and all clean lines for 10 days from Lees to Phantom.  Hard to doubt him with that grin plastered to his face.

A few of his images…
