TY
Lead Guide
With well over 10,000 hours on the Lochsa, it's safe to say that Ty is a real master of Idaho's rivers. He's been a Three Rivers guide for 17 years and has seen it all! Ty is a true leader and one of the best guides in the world. He could be working anywhere, but chooses these rivers because they have his heart. Ty's favorite rapid is Ten Pin Alley
SARA
Sargent Sweeney
Yip Yip! A true river goddess who pours her everything into being a steward of the land. Sara has been boating for ___ years and specializes in stout rivers, yoga salutations, and first breakfasts. Sara loves it when you listen to your guide, because let's face it - the guides know best! She is the Locsha liaison for the Redside Foundation and a true wilderness professional. During the colder months, Sara works Ski Patrol at Schweitzer Mountain and fixes up her caboose.
GUS
Guide #4
We have a saying at TRR: "If you want something done right....get Gus to do it!" In all seriousness though, this guy is the best. Gus is an incredible boatman and huge team player. He'll be in your corner every time, while cooking up the best pork loin! Gus is the people's elected mayor of Tent City. He may be #4 on the water, but he's #1 in our hearts! Just watch out for Johnny Hotshot (his alter-ego)!
