RAFT GUIDE SCHOOLS: These five-day courses are designed for people wanting to lead river trips or become professional raft guides. We focus on safety, reading water, and guiding paddle rafts through Class II, III and IV whitewater. Topics include trip preparation, safety talks, equipment, rigging, boat handling, communications, paddle commands, and rescue techniques. Our five-day Raft Guide School combines river instruction with a certified Whitewater Rescue Technician class the first three days. On days four and five you’ll guide whitewater raft trips on the Blackfoot River and Alberton Gorge. The course is hosted at the Alberton Gorge Ranch and includes a Whitewater Rescue Technician certification and certificate of completion.  We are really excited for the upcoming season of Swiftwater rescue training, Raft Guide Schools, Rafting Workshops and Youth Adventure Camps.  Montana River Guides has been hosting these clinics since 1995. Give us a call any time for more information.
