We’ve seen pro kayaker Rafa Ortiz paddling some wild whitewater over the years, but rarely have we gotten the chance to learn more about him along the way. This video aims to change that, taking us with Rafa has he heads to Big Timber, Montana to explore the wild rivers that are found there. His goal? To take on Big Timber Falls at the height of the spring melt off. As it turns out, that’s a challenge even for this incredibly experienced paddler.
Tip of the hat to my friends at Roam Media for this fantastic adventure film.
