Kalisha Donnelly Whitewater Rafting Guide

Born 1983 in Portland, Oregon. Guide with ROW since 2002: MT, ID.

Kalisha got her start at ROW as a guide assistant when she was just 17. Since then she has guided over 40 trips on the Upper Missouri River and now knows more about Lewis and Clark than she ever dreamed possible. She loves water in any form and also guides our whitewater trips throughout Idaho and Montana. She took a break from school for several years and traveled during the winter, taught English in Japan and worked construction in Hawaii. Currently she is enrolled at the California Maritime Academy where she is pursuing a degree to become a ship's captain. Kalisha brings a wealth of talent to our trips along with laughter and that very valuable skill of common sense.
