Anika Lofts Whitewater Rafting Guide

Born 1986 in Huntsville, Utah. Guide since 2002. CA, MT, ID. With ROW since 2009

As the eighth of nine kids in her family and the second “Lofts” to work at ROW, Anika has some big shoes to fill and she takes that job seriously. Growing up in Montana, in a family that raised horses, Anika spent a lot of time in the outdoors and some of her fondest childhood memories are of time spent riding with her family. Anika does not like to sit still, in one year she floated the Grand Canyon, kayaked the Futalefu in Chile, and night dived off the shores of Maui, in the phosphorescence of plankton. You can catch Anika on all the rivers ROW runs, but one of her favorites is the one she grew up with in her backyard, the Lochsa.
