Pool Man
Mark Quenelle
I have been paddling for over 30 years, and have been an ACA Instructor for three years, which is also how long that I’ve been at 4CRS. I love Durango and all that it offers, especially the local rivers. My passions all involve the mountains, and I enjoy backcountry skiing and snowshoeing. My favorite local whitewater run is the Piedra. My favorite craft is a canoe, but I also love to kayak and love to share my passion for being on the river!

Instructor
Max Ryan
My name is Max Ryan I’ve been kayaking since 2013. My favorite river to paddle is the White Salmon river in Washington state. I was born in Colorado and spent my life learning how to kayak on the rivers all over the state. I’m currently working on a degree in outdoor design but you can find me outside taking in the fresh air.
