Jake Hochberger
A New Jersey native, Jake has lead trips and safety kayaked on South Carolina’s Chattooga River, guided rafts on the Deerfield in Massachusetts, and has rowed multi-day trips on the Rio Grande along the Texas-Mexico border. His adventures have landed him on a raft floating the Main Salmon River, splashing through the depths of the Grand Canyon on the Colorado, and canoeing through the remote lower canyons of the Rio Grande. Using a raft and river gorge as his classroom, Jake believes that by floating rivers and learning about their unique natural and cultural histories, we can learn a lot about ourselves and the world we live in. In the rare moments that he finds himself off the river, Jake dedicates himself to the pursuit of a good story as an avid reader, audiophile, and podcast producer.
Join Jake on the river for both half day and full day trips on the White Salmon River! You can also find him in the office helping out the marketing team.
