What Really Happens on a Grand Canyon River Trip?

In this episode of Life in Motion, Jeremy talks with Dean Knuth of Arizona River Runners about what it’s actually like to experience the Grand Canyon from the river. Dean shares how he went from never having rafted before to spending more than a decade helping others take on one of the most memorable trips of their lives. They talk about the different ways to explore the canyon, why the trip is more approachable than many people think, and what happens when you trade your normal routine for a week on the water. Dean also shares a few unforgettable guest stories, including a 90-year-old finally checking off a lifelong dream and a reluctant camper who left the canyon with a poem in hand. It’s a fun look at why this trip sticks with people long after they return home.Life in Motion is brought to you by Actual Outdoors.
