Doug Ammons

Featured Athlete

Doug Ammons has been a world class kayaker for 25 years. A Montana native, Doug started whitewater kayaking in the early 1980s, quickly excelled, and began doing first descents regionally throughout Montana, Idaho, Washington, Wyoming, and Alberta. These extended into major expeditions over the next 20+ years as he became one of the world’s premier whitewater kayakers. He is probably best known for his expedition first descents, extreme high water descents of classic rivers like the North Fork of the Payette, and solo descents of wilderness Class V and VI rivers, such as Devil’s Canyon of the Susitna in Alaska and the Grand Canyon of the Stikine River in northern British Columbia. Doug was one of the first true all-around paddlers, at home in every kind of whitewater from extreme steep creeks to wilderness big water. From 1985 to 1990, he also was one of the world’s top rodeo paddlers. But river running is his greatest love.  www.dougammons.com
