Raft Guide

We are looking for a fun, outgoing person to join our team! Our small staff is our family and we enjoy making our guests happy. If you're looking for a second family, it's probably us! We love living on the Deschutes, home to world-class fishing, great whitewater rafting, hiking and hunting. Also, within a 1-hour drive of Maupin, is skiing on Mt Hood, wind sports in the Columbia River Gorge, local wineries, waterfalls and tons of camping. We are 2 hours from the Portland International Airport, making it easy to hop a flight anywhere.

We are looking for a seasonal guide who will be responsible to preparing trips, safely guide guests down the river and clean up their trips. Our guides run half-day, full day, frenzy and multi-day trips (when trained up for them). The river averages as class II-III with a class III+ section. We primarily paddle guide, and use stern assists on multi-day trips. 

THE PERKS & BENEFITS

As our employee, you receive discounts at our bar and restaurant, discounted lodging, and a spectacular view and working environment. We have an RV spot available with full hookups, or options available if you are a van dweller, at a monthly rent.
