Your Instructor

My name is Rich Carlson. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to present myself and my services to you.

Over the past 30+ years I have helped thousands of people like you follow their dreams of adventure.

Students around the world have included recreational canyoneers and climbers from beginner to advanced, professional guides, rescue teams, backcountry rangers, law enforcement and the military.

Here is why you should choose me to be your instructor

Join Me

Grab your gear and a rope and follow me on a journey of learning and exploration. Along the way you will gain knowledge and competence with anchors, rigging and rescue systems while honing your personal rappelling, ascending and problem-solving skills.

My approach to teaching will provide you with a logical path to technical excellence, as you gain confidence and an increased sense of self-reliance.

Your journey begins

Our Spirit

Canyoneering Karma

Train with me. Travel with me. Help me help others.

We share the same spirit of adventure and of service.

No matter where we go or what we do, I guarantee you will be rewarded with smiles from those we serve and memories that will last a lifetime.
