Don’t see your Guide?

The above guides all work primarily for Salty Cutthroat Outfitters, or do a substantial amount of their trips for us. They are part of what we consider our core team of guides.  The team above cannot handle every guided trip that comes our way. When this happens, we call on a number of excellent independent guides.  We have complete confidence in their ability to show you a great day at Pyramid Lake.
