Thanks to Rogue Wilderness and their guides for a great few days of training.
We kicked off the 3-day training with a fun, albeit bloody, day of wilderness first aid, and then moved into two days of swiftwater rescue training. Argo, or ‘Gnargo’ as the rogue guides like to call the rapid, provided us with some excellent training opportunities for day one.
During day two we based out of Indian Mary campground and were able to incorporate a down-river component through Hellgate canyon. Great times.
Thanks for all you who came out to train and a special thanks to Rogue Wilderness and Rogue Canyon Adventures Have a great season!
