White Water Rafting Season
The whitewater rafting season on the Kicking Horse River is short, and we work from mid-May through mid-September. There is never a dull moment with ‘nothing to do’ at the River Base. The flip side is that we play hard, too. The mountains offer endless possibilities on days off!
Wild Water Adventures Crew Life
Our wages are attractive, and the life experience is nothing short of exceptional! We encourage the crew to grow and learn new practical and personal skills during their time with us beyond their job. There are always opportunities to learn new or different aspects of guiding or business management.
