Celebrating 40 Years of Outdoor Adventures. Pioneers in Paddling Since 1986

Aaron Kuntz

Operations Manager

Aaron grew up in the suburbs of Colorado, where family camping trips, neighborhood bike rides, and long days exploring nearby parks sparked an early love for being outside. That curiosity for the natural world followed him into adulthood — from mountain biking and hiking, to paddling quiet rivers and discovering new trails across the country.

After moving to Texas, Aaron developed a passion for kayaking through fishing local lakes and paddling the clear waters of the Comal and San Marcos Rivers. That time on the water deepened his connection to outdoor recreation and ultimately helped lead him to the Pacific Northwest and Olympic Outdoor Center.

Aaron holds a bachelor’s degree in business administration from Texas State University. In his role as Operations Manager, Aaron blends professional expertise with genuine enthusiasm for outdoor adventure. He works behind the scenes to support our guides and instructors, maintain our high standards for programs and equipment, and ensure our operations run smoothly year-round.

Friendly, thoughtful, and always ready to help the team succeed, Aaron plays a key role in supporting our mission to inspire people to explore, connect, and Paddle. Bike. Play.
