Our Swiftwater rescue classes are designed for professional guides and rescuers, and private boaters who want to be better prepared to avoid river accidents and to respond when things do go wrong.  Learn how to recognize and avoid hazards, self rescue, and help others in our three day swiftwater rescue training sessions in April, May, and June. Private boaters, whitewater guides, and rescue professionals all love this class. Instructors will discuss equipment, reading water, and risk management in the classroom before heading to the river for Montana’s most comprehensive river rescue clinic. Lear self-rescue, quick shore based rescues, and much more. We partner with Montana River Guides and the Whitewater Rescue Institute to offer these state of the art rescue clinic.
