One of the first times I started understanding how guides really earned their paychecks was floating the Box Canyon of the Henry's Fork, where the guide would jump out and walk the boat through some really heavy water. Definitely a "do not try this at home" moment for me!
As a guide I have been doing this for decades with my clients, but again only when it is safe to do so, it’s actually less work to do this rather than back rowing.

Thanks for the validation Brian. It's really effective when done safely.
That was the first time anyone has written about this that I am aware of.
Works well, have done it for decades.
Cheers
