"The Ouzel alone of all birds dares to enter a white torrent."
Few river companies put as many resources into training, continued training and certification of their guide staff .
Guides new to Ouzel must complete a competitive application and training process (regardless of their previous experience). Once training is complete, a long period of “apprenticeship” is required before being qualified to work. Returning guides are required to attend "returning guide" training each year where skills are refreshed, company standards re-iterated and new policies and procedures are introduced.
Our guide staff are an extremely loyal and tight-knit group of professionals. With little turnover each year, Ouzel maintains a high level of experience, tradition and teamwork. Our guides know our rivers, our trips and most importantly, our guests.
“The best part of the trip was how genuine and professional the guides were. I have been around a lot "guides" in my life and Bobby, Neeley, Cameron and Alek were pros in every way. but at the same time flexible enough to let us try new things - very good judge of character, all 4 of them. What makes a trip go from good to amazing is the people, and we won the lottery!!” -Dan S. (Rogue River)
