The WRT is also running 21-23 April so for those wanting to operate as level 2 unrestricted guides, it is also essential to get WRT qualified. That is the Rescue 3 qualification specific to the river guide.

by getting the skills on a white water international raft guide course you can start travelling the world with your kayak. Here is a photo from my recent kayak and mtb trip to bc canada. This is the skoocumchuck wave in bc which is a province with lots of commercial rafting companies looking for guides. Take your kayak to play on your days off, amazing creeking and super play at places like Skooks!
