GET TO KNOW
CHRIS PORTER
FIRST BEND RAPID
30 YR GUIDE
HAILS FROM CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA
DID YOU KNOW
Chris doesn’t like to talk about himself. He’d rather listen to guests tell stories or take in the sounds of the river as he navigates the rapids. As part of the Porter family, he grew up on the Middle Fork, which makes him an excellent guide on this river.
THIS ONE TIME
One place you can get Chris to talk is around the campfire. He’ll tell you how wearing life jackets messed up the Porter boys’ perfect tans in the 80’s.
IN HIS OTHER LIFE
Chris is an accomplished surgeon. Whether he’s wearing a bathing suit or scrubs, you can always trust he will ensure the best experience.
