Timberline Tours celebrates its 50th anniversary this year. Through all that time, and all the change, has been founder and owner Greg Kelchner.
Starting in 1971 out of a corner in the Gorsuch ski shop, Kelchner’s nascent backcountry touring operations continued to grow along with the resort and the valley.
Now operating out of three separate boathouses one in Eagle, another in Granite and another at Rancho Del Rio Timberline Tours employs nearly 70 guides and support staff, along with a substantial fleet of rafts, duckies, stand up paddle boards, Jeeps and the many vehicles that shuttle guests to and from the many different locations of their trips.
