Yet another one of our native guides, Alan has been with us since the beginning. As a boy growing up in the Rogue Valley, Alan developed a love of nature due to outings with his father and grandfather Scuba diving, fishing, camping, hiking and inner tubing on the Rogue River. He eventually became interested in automobiles and drag racing and worked as an ATRA certified automatic transmission builder for 20+ years. His entire life changed when he attended his first river guide training in 1997. He trained and worked with a raft company for 9 years before coming to Momentum. He now works graveyard shift at Boise Cascade plywood plant to pay the mortgage and continues working as a river guide on the weekends. As evidence of Alan’s love of the river, his marriage to his wife Debbie took place on the Klamath River and the guest book was a wooden oar. Alan gets a ton off requests from guests, in fact some of Pete’s favorite guests have decided that they would rather go with Alan.
