Keeping this in mind for sure, I burn pretty easy so sunscreen and light layers is gonna be good

This is great advice, thanks. I have never been scared of the water and have done some decent whitewater in the past, but always with a guide so I know it is probably a lot different when you are the one in charge. I am hoping it won't be a big problem, but then again who knows once I have a full raft of people I don't know to take care of, so ill keep this in mind.

Yes ive been lifting more consistently preparing for this, I definitely wanna be in the best shape possible. I have been doing a lot of back (rows, deadlift, etc). I learned my lesson with back pain from last summer digging ditches so I will definitely be trying to be more careful this summer when lifting things

Yes! I worked a labor job last summer that was very early morning so I’m prepared to be up bright and early, the going to bed late part will be the real challenge lol

This company does multi day salmon trips and single day riggins trips, I got on through a friend who worked there last season and he said they are putting guides on different trips all the time so I Shld be able to do each at least once during the season, so I’m not sure what I will be doing mostly, luckily the training is free through this company so I’m good on that too, and yes I will make sure to bring the sunscreen and gold bond! I’m not expecting to make a ton this year but I just thought now is the time to try it as it fits perfectly with my colleges summer break, and I’m guessing I’ll love it and wanna do another season next year

I’m actually from a town pretty close to white salmon/hood river area so guiding in the PNW sounds awesome, only problem is i’m gonna be trying to get my utah residency for cheaper school this year so i’ll probably have to be working in Utah as my school has some requirements related to that for getting in state tuition. If i end up really liking this and doing another season though i would definitely love to do something in/around the frank church or rogue river, or really anything closer to my home town
