Charly Heavenrich
Charly has been a river guide in Grand Canyon since 1978, and has worked with Canyon Explorations from day one. His passion is in helping people go where they never imagined possible. As a river guide, he does whatever it takes to support his passengers in having the best possible experience in the Canyon. During the off season he is a Life Coach (“Next Steps Life Coaching), Adventure Speaker, Author of two books (“Dancing on the Edge”, “Unimagined Gifts,”) and Inner Grand Canyon Photographer. Four of Charly’s images have just been installed in the permanent collection at the American Embassy in Monrovia, Liberia. His website is www.thecanyonguy.com. What keeps him coming back is the depth of courage and ability demonstrated through the powerful experiences of his passengers.
“Charly was an exceptional partner in helping me overcome my fear of hiking in exposed areas. And in general, getting the most out of this experience in all regards! I learned so much about myself in talking with him.” – E.G. June 25, 2012
