Steve Revier

Steve Revier, paramedic, PA-C, has been missing on the Klickitat River in Oregon since May 17. An extensive search of the river bank did not result in anything. Steve is listed as missing. The search for him has been suspended.

I worked with Steve outside of EMS for several years when we were both whitewater guides for the same outfitter. We paddled together on occasion for fun. He was smart, exceptionally knowledgeable, personable and extremely safety conscious. He was an all around good guy.. the kind of guy you wanted with you when things started to go bad. He was an experienced whitewater paddler and swift water rescue provider and instructor. For anything to have happened to him under the conditions in which he was boating something would have had to have gone unforeseeably bad.

Steve and I lost touch after he moved to Oregon several years ago. However, this is still hard news to hear.

Condolences to Steve's wife, family, friends and coworkers.
