Next up in our behind-the-scenes journey: the moments right before we get to meet all of youuuu! 🫶

Whether we’re at Boundary or Corn Creek, there’s something special about those few moments we get to ourselves before heading downriver with our guests and crew.

We have our little traditions and routines during this time, a pattern we all seamlessly fall into. Walking down to Dagger Falls to see if we can spot salmon jumping. Our tiny little sleep-ins at Corn after a long resupply day. Or simply a moment to be together, be giggly, and remember why we love this place and these people so much.

Let’s start from the very beginning! As you may (or may not) know, our trips don’t begin at the river. No, they begin at the warehouse during trip rig, with multiple trucks and trailers to load before we can get everything to the river!

It’s where a lot of the behind-the-scenes action happens, whether it’s silly moments, tired faces, or a little problem-solving along the way.

Here are a few BTS moments from the place we spend most of our time when we’re not on the river 🤓

Behind the scenes: Guide cuddle puddles 🥹🫶

As someone who loves being close to my friends and fellow guides, one of my favorite parts of our Canyons culture are the cuddle puddles.

You’d think after spending day after day, hour after hour together, we’d get sick of each other. But nope! Even when it’s time to crawl into our sleeping bags, we somehow end up side by side.

Here’s a little sneak peek into our guide cuddle puddles.

My most favorite and most-loved BTS moment is our Stoke Tutu ✨

The Stoke Tutu makes its first appearance on our annual high-water training trip and gets passed from guide to guide to celebrate whoever exemplifies the most stoke that day, in whatever way stoke speaks to them!

As tradition calls, the chosen guide then wears the Tutu of Stoke for the remainder of the day - no matter the vessel. Kayak, raft, passenger princess… you name it.

At the end of the day, it’s more than just a tutu. It’s our way of showing support, appreciation, and love for our guide family. Aannddd amping up the energy as we kick off another season together 🤍

Long live the Stoke Tutu 🪩

KAMI HERE!

I'm one of Canyons biggest fans [and a Canyons guide!] and October is going to be alllll about the "behind the scenes" of Canyons life! The sneak peeks that no one usually gets to see 👀

There will be some silliness, action and a bit of mush and love mixed in. If you've been on a trip with us, well you'll know some of these moments.

And others, you'll be surprised to see 😏

STAY TUNED AND STICK AROUND!

The kind of evening we wish we could hold onto a little longer.

Boats pulled in at Cradle, one of our favorite camps, as everyone settles in and dinner starts to come together.

One of those simple end-of-day moments that feels like nothing special while you’re in it, but somehow becomes the one you want to remember.

We spend our entire days on these boats. Floating, chatting, laughing, and getting to know one another. You’d think that...

We spend our entire days on these boats. Floating, chatting, laughing, and getting to know one another. You’d think that once we reach camp, we’d be ready to get on land.

But somehow, we find ourselves right back on them.

Tied up at camp, close to the water, sharing conversations as the sun goes down. Sometimes the boats carry us downriver, and sometimes they simply hold us together for a little while longer. 🎞️
