A Lifelong Passion for the Outdoors

Tyler and Jennifer Callantine share a passion for the outdoors and for whitewater rafting. Together they have more than 30 years of river guide and white water rafting experience from all over the western United States. With every Dinosaur River Expeditions adventure, you’ll see Tyler and Jen’s passion for whitewater rafting and the great outdoors.

Tyler got his first taste of the Green and Yampa Rivers as a young boy from his Grandpa Av and Grandma Virginia Kay. Av began his river rafting adventures in the 1940’s in Dinosaur National Monument. Their excitement for river trip adventure drove Tyler to pursue his love of guiding and the outdoors.

Tyler and Jen’s favorite river trips are right in their own backyard — on Colorado’s world-famous Yampa River and Green River through the Gates of Lodore. Their love for the local region shows on every rafting trip they take. Dinosaur River Expeditions is proud to be the only locally owned and operated outfitter in the Vernal, Utah area.
