How much flat water kayak guides to

How I can wait to make a guide for flat-water kayak, such as lakes and large rivers in the southwestern part of the U.S.? Looking for a salary range of work for an established operator, not looking to start my own business. Just to clarify, the issue is what are the requirements to be a river guide, the question is how much do.

Not much. Unfortunately, in the southwest, inland waterway transport Not the first thing I think. I rowed the Colorado River in Black Canyon, and in the Yuma area in the overnight, multi-day trips. I have a friend in Las Vegas with a friend who helps guard, leading occasionally. I think I could make $ 150 to $ 200 a weekend, but it is a concert of 24 hours a day, and is a lot work. He has extensive training in first aid and river safety, and has been rowing a long, long time. equipment suppliers will need to guides have some level of Wilderness First Aid, and a kind of rescue in the water to learn how to use a throw bag, insurance, etc. is a waste Disclaimer great for shipowners. Customers make silly mistakes, even in flat water, and panic can. (Especially the cold water flat, like the Colorado). As KayakLakeMead.com and Desert River Outfitters and see what their needs are.
