#003 - Paddling the Tatshenshini River right into the Yukon Sports Hall of Fame with Bob Daffe

My Amazing Yukon Life

#003 - World renown white water paddling expert, Yukon Sport Hall of Fame Inductee, and founder of Tatshenshini Expediting, Bob Daffe, highlights some of the wild river adventures he’s had while living ( and playing ) for more than four decades in the Yukon. His passion for white water adventure has taken him to some of the most remote parts of Canada’s north as well as epic forays into Central and South America on a quest for that perfect chute over countless waterfalls.

No stranger to hard work and adverse conditions, Bob’s grit, determination and passion for river adventure lead him to build one of Yukon’s most successful rafting/canoe and kayak businesses. From the early years of building his own fibreglass kayaks, to the new state of the art “pack rafts” of today, his vision of Yukon paddling reaches far into the future as this living legend inspires thousands of like-minded paddlers to follow in his…. “footsteps?” Paddle strokes!
