Most of our guides are educators, college students, college graduates, or ski area personnel. Instruction will cover equipment care, knots, hydrology, reading water, oar and paddle technique, meal preparation, sanitation, emergency procedures, and group dynamics. Hiring is competitive and will typically take place after completion of this course. We will not be hiring people based solely on rafting skill but rather on work ethic, desire to learn, ability to be a team player within a group, friendliness, and intelligence. Please realize there is much more training in May and June than commercially paid trips so you must be able to support yourself financially through those times.
Some camping is available at our riverside launch.
Potential applicants will be subject to a drug test prior to employment. We expect a lot from our staff and have several rules in order to maintain a good operation. If you are looking for a challenging and rewarding experience this may be the job for you. If you are interested in applying for a position, print a copy of the application form, fill it out completely and return it to us via US Postal mail. If you already have a resume, please send that along with the completed supplemental application.
