And then there's our guides
Besides being incredible charming, good-looking, and more fun than a barrel full of monkeys, we are highly skilled on the rivers. All guides are licensed for commercial rafting in accordance with the draft Federal Rafting Standards of Canada and hold valid Swiftwater Rescue and First Aid Certification. Each year, we spend weeks honing our skills and practicing rescues. Most guides have post-secondary education in a tourism-related field, and are professional career guides. They work with all types of groups, so put your worries aside when you come - even the little ones will be charmed! Special needs groups can be catered to, and we are aware that not everyone is young and fit! At all times, we are dedicated to your safety and showing you a great time!

employment opportunities
Wild Blue Yonder is excellent training ground for guides serious about their craft. We have a wide diversity of rivers, and many are technical runs. Your river reading skills become very sharp, and response times honed. On shore, we run a tight ship, with the many trips and packages resulting in a dynamic fast-paced workday. For those interested in the business side, we are seeking full-time booking staff, who also assist with other parts of the operation. A mid-size company, the owners both guide and promote a team atmosphere. We offer full training for juniors, and continuing training for those with experience. Interested?
