      I have been doing this for the last 8 years and don’t want to miss next year.
      In short I have a full S Rig – holds trip maximum of 16 plus a 17′ NRS raft that I pull behind that is untied for major rapids. I have trailer, truck, everything to do the trip.Have developed a great system that makes a great trip.(hybrid trip)
      Advantages: The total trip costs average around $500 each (includes food, shuttle,etc)
      better food than most commercials – lots of ice.
      Average trip length is around 8-9 days – motor allows for more time at
      camp and more hiking.
      I have been a guide, boater since 73 – know the canyon very well
      There are NO rental costs whatsoever
      I have a list of many referrals who have gone down with me in the past.
      I come from a river running family – sons and daughters have all been
      guides. 3 of them have over 280 grand canyon trips combined.

      Disadvantage: I need at least 3 spots in the group for my friends, family.

      John,

      Same as you, hooked. I don’t have a permit, but maybe if you get on one and they ask for a safety kayaker and Emergency room trauma nurse then you’ve got us in your back pocket to add to the safety of the group. I haven’t updated our ad yet as we went down in Sept 2020 but here it is from last year. Good luck and we will keep you in mind if we get invited too…

      thanks,
      Martin and April

      I offer experienced rescue kayak support.
      Have been down upper and lower Grand 16 times.
      Cataract Canyon 5 times and multiple other trips offering kayak support.

      Latest Grand trips:
      July 2018 Grand trip via this website invite. Picked up 8 swimmers and 1 ghost boat.

      Below is a clip of me surviving Lava Falls

      My partner, April, is an R.N trauma, E.R. and flight nurse. She has full medical kit with EPI pen. She would be pleased to offer medical support, if necessary, and is an experienced rafter.

      We are easy to get along with and have experience with diverse groups. Non-smokers, light drinkers. And have no problem doing the dirty work…groover duty etc!!!

      BEST to Contact me directly via email: lucky333888333@gmail.com
      If you need any references, I can direct you to our July 2018 and July 2019 trip participants.

      Thanks for the consideration
      Martin Ginsburg and April Marion
