Your Instructor

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.

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.
