(From Brad) I was raised on a family farm in the very shadows of the Frank Church Wilderness and became an avid outdoorsman at an early age. I began my whitewater guiding career 24 years ago on this very Salmon River. From 1990 until 1999 I treasured every chance to be on the river while pursuing other adventures, such as being an Air Force fighter pilot flying for a NATO command squadron and flying corporate jets. In 1999 Robin and I purchased Sun Valley Rivers Company which had been providing quality trips on the Middle Fork for 20 years and changed the name to Adventure Sun Valley. We now operate this business full time. While flying some of the world's highest profile businessmen and celebrities around the world, I've learned that even if we as a crew successfully navigate through a dark, blustery storm and execute a very difficult approach and landing, only to find that the limousine is late, the whole trip can be bust for the client. We strive to apply the same principle to outfitting: an uncompromising dedication to safety, coupled with attention to the smallest details, to ensure each guest an unforgettable expedition - Brad
(From Robin) My career has been in the field of education, teaching foreign languages to Kindergarteners through college students, in Oregon, France, and Japan. Initially, it was my love for Brad that prompted me to venture into the outfitting business! Since then, a love for the Middle Fork and pampering guests as family has confirmed my decision beyond all doubt. – Robin
  Testimony from Russel Cameron / Owner of America's Outdoor Journal. (A nationally acclaimed outdoor television program).
"This team’s energy and enthusiasm on the river is contagious. I have never met a group who are more willing to graciously extend themselves to make others feel welcome and at home. Rarely have I witnessed a more unified or talented group. Do not join them on the river unless you are ready to have a lot of fun. When I decided to produce a comprehensive video guide to the Middle Fork, my research led directly to their doorstep. I quickly found that there is no other outfitter on the Middle Fork that enjoys as sterling of reputation. This team has not only proven to be the most technically competent company on the river but the most entertaining. My business puts me in touch with multitudes of outfitters throughout the country and without a doubt this is the best that I have ever seen. I encourage you to experience it first hand, Have a great Adventure."

Hi, my name is Levi Ewing. I grew up in Montana and Idaho running rivers and just enjoying God’s Awesome Outdoors. I went to Ecola Bible school in Cannon Beach Oregon and I’ve been doing some youth ministry, waiting tables and rafting the last couple of years. I just married my sweetheart last December, so that’s my life right there. I love taking other people out and showing them the wilderness I love. I look forward to seeing you on the river this summer.
G’day Mate – I am Eli Kretzman, an Idaho native, spending this winter exploring New Zealand while waiting for the season to begin again on the Wonderful Middle Fork. I am a Business Graduate from Lee University in Cleveland Tennessee. I treasure these summers that I have been blessed to spend with friends like you on a river like this. See you this summer.
My name is Jack Tousley, and I love the outdoors. I was born and raised outside of Kooskia, ID on the beautiful Clearwater River. My house was 30 miles below the Lochsa River, one of the most demanding one-day rafting rivers in the country! I have been a guide for 3 years, and been on the water since before I could walk. I am currently a student at the University of Idaho, studying Communications and Spanish. I love meeting new people, and every day on the river is a new adventure. See you on the water!
Hi my name is Jake, I am junior this year and majoring in Geology at Fort Lewis in Durango. Eventually, I would like to become a hydrologist, no doubt a direct connection to my love for anything including water. My parents raised me outdoors in Pagosa Springs, Colorado; hunting, fishing, skiing, kayaking, climbing, hiking and just about whatever else included time outdoors. Kayaking is my first passion and there is no place I feel more comfortable than with a paddle in hand running white water. I love my job on the river and appreciate every moment I can be on the water. I play the guitar a bit and never turn down a campfire, friends and good time. See ya on the water!
