Back for another season on the Squamish rivers, Dahlia is bringing her skill, stoke, and a whole lot of girl power to the team! 💪🏼 Originally from Gaspésie, Québec, she’s been paddling since she was a kid and has spent over a decade chasing whitewater.

This season, she’s fired up to take on more time on the oars and share her love for the river with every crew that hops in her boat. We’re lucky to have her back!
