Become a Whitewater Guide!
RAFT GUIDE SCHOOLS:
Montana River Guides offers two to five day classes designed for new professional raft guides and/or people wanting to lead private river trips. We focus on safety, reading water, and guiding paddle rafts and oar rigs through Class II, III and IV whitewater. Topics include trip preparation, safety talks, equipment, rigging, boat handling, communications, paddle commands, and rescue techniques. Our five day Raft Guide School combines river instruction with a certified Whitewater Rescue Technician class the first two days. On days three, four and five you'll guide whitewater raft trips on the Blackfoot River and Alberton Gorge. The course is hosted at the Alberton Gorge Ranch and includes a Whitewater Rescue Technician certification and certificate of completion. Tuition: $435.
Our Spring Break Raft Guide School is scheduled for March 21-25. The April Raft Guide School takes place March 26-28 & April 3-5. The May Raft Guide School is scheduled for May 18-22. Finally, expect highwater at the June Raft Guide School, June 12-16, 2009.
All classes are headquartered at the Alberton Gorge Ranch where camping is available for all participants. Call 800-381-RAFT for details.
