Travis

Travis worked with costacanyoning 10 years ago with the claim to fame as being Costa Canyoning's second guide, and first to do high water rainy season . Modest and humble, he never truely let all his knowledge with ropes, rescues, and climbing known. He grew up with ropes in his hands, climbing and rappelling in his blood. His father was part of the local fire company's high angle rescue crew, instead of tv they did knots. He's also an Eagle Scout, and has traveled the U.S. working National and Council camps teaching climbing, C.O.P.E, skiing, diving, and sailing. When it was time for a "real" job he found a calling with cell towers, where his background got him national recognition for rescuing a climber on a tower. After settling down a bit Travis and his family decided to move back to Costa Rica. His wife, Courtney, has a successful 200 YTT Yoga School in Uvita, gypseayogaschool, which Travis helped to facilitate, but his passion laid a short distance away in the Canyon. When he took over Costa Canyoning he thought he would be in the canyon more but he found out quick that the boys are the real charm of the tour, and knew he would have to be the behind the scenes guy. Now and then you might get a chance to see him in the canyon, either working the tour or checking out the routes.
