We have owned River of No Return Wilderness Outfitters since 2013. Both of us began guiding on the Salmon River when we turned 18 and have guided on the Middle Fork Salmon, Selway and Main Salmon Rivers. We both grew up in Salmon, Idaho and were classmates from preschool through graduation. Our passion for our community and the Salmon River brought us back together in Salmon, Idaho. We have four kids: Zane, Whitney, Vivianne, Daphne and Lucy. Our company is at home on the Salmon River and would love to share all it has to offer with people looking for a wilderness vacation.
Zach is one of our lead guides and has been working with RNR since 2015. He has been guiding on the Main Salmon since he was 18 years old (2007), although he has been floating down the river for most of his life. Along with his Main Salmon experience, Zach has worked several seasons on the Middle Fork Salmon River. He is the owner’s (Breann Green) brother. Zach is married to his wonderful wife Crysta and they have a daughter Zoe (2) and a son McKay (0); yes, that is after the famous Salmon River Scow driver Jonny McKay. When he is not busy wrangling kids or on the river, Zach, who lives in Salmon, Idaho, works at the local ski hill, Lost Trail Powder Mountain grooming runs and creating exciting terrain park rails and jumps. His passion for the river is matched by few and he works hard to make sure your vacation is something you will not soon forget.
Zane has been working with RNR since he was 12 years old; first as a "swamper", then as a full guide when he turned 18 and got his license. Zane is a native of Salmon, Idaho. Zane has vast knowledge of the river canyon and the fish and wildlife that call Idaho home.
Tom is a long time Salmon River guide and brings years of river running, cooking, star gazing, biology and storytelling to each trip. Tom resides in southern Idaho where he is retired from teaching high school biology and astronomy.
Tiia calls Montana home while she is not guiding on Idaho rivers, although originally from Finland! Tiia is an experienced river guide having worked on multiple different rivers and brings many years of rafting experience to each trip.
