AWESOME company! If you need a guide or want to take a course to improve your canyoneering skills, this is your company!
Jared and his team taught us so many new skills, and were amazing every step of the way. I highly recommend them in every way!!
Jared and his team were exceptional in explaining techniques and methods in ways that were both memorable and understandable. I was super impressed by how patient, positive, and watchful the instructors were — always finding my slip-ups and correcting them in a positive way. I progressed so far in three days — from the uninitiated to an experienced (albeit still “green”) canyoneer. And I had a great time!
A really awesome canyoneering course! North Wash Outfitters came recommended to me by some friends and I’m so glad I did it. I feel so much more comfortable with the skills and techniques I learned, the instructors are super knowledgeable and experienced. Great class, great experience, great people. I look forward to taking an advanced class when I’m ready
This course exceeded my expectations in that I learned more than I had imagined I would. The structure was perfect and the instructors were knowledgeable and eager to help. We also had the added benefit of having a good group of students so it was fun as well as educational. I definitely recommend North Wash Outfitters if you’re looking to learn canyoneering skills.
I have taken both the beginner and advanced class from Jared and his crew. Their knowledge and teaching methods are superior. They not only teach the techniques in a way that anyone can learn, but they are also patient and make sure you understand. Going through the trainings and the canyons with them you can tell that safety is definitely a value.
