ABOUT ME
Sydney grew up in Arizona, training horses all her life. She graduated with a degree from Northern Arizona University in Recreation Management in 2014. After working in equine occupational therapy for a while, she wanted a change of scenery and turned to the river for a new challenge. She began raft guiding in the summer of 2017 and hasn’t looked back! Now, Sydney spends her time snowboarding and split boarding in the winter, and rafting in the summer. She fell in love with Colorado and all the seasonal sports that come with it (mostly rafting and snowboarding). Sydney headed to White Salmon in the summer of 2021 for a new adventure and the pursuit of year-round whitewater!
What Guests Say About Sydney
“Had an absolutely awesome time. The staff are wonderful to work with. The gear supplied was perfect! Our raft captain “Squid” was awesome, and made the entire trip educational and entertaining. The rapids and waterfalls are perfect for novice and experienced rafters. The care taken for everyone’s needs and special requirements was first rate. Watching the entire team work to make sure everyone got the most out of the adventure was fantastic. As a novice I would encourage anyone that wants to experience white water rafting for the first time to use Wet Plant, you will love it.” – Stan H., Google Reviews
