This involves planning, hard work, calculated risk‐taking, and physical and mental preparedness. My group and I plan, organize and execute private, self-guided, self-supported, multi-day class IV whitewater rafting trips. I've rowed over 1100 river-miles through some of the most remote and scenic wilderness areas of the American West, including the 225 miles / 21 days of the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon in fall of 2021. I've organized and led many of these trips, paying special attention to talent mix, emergency and safety preparedness, cost control, and the logistics involved with food, waste, transportation, regulation compliance and gear.
