Congress is deadlocking on public land protection. We deserve better.
It was not a bad place to be looking for wildlife. There were deer, elk, and moose everywhere. Our best elk sighting was on the second to last day, when we came over a pass. Down in the valley we saw a group of about 50 elk, two bulls were fighting, their antlers clacking when they crashed together. From that exact spot at the top of the pass, we also saw a bull moose kneeling beside a lake, and four mountain goats along a ridge above him.
Editor’s note: The TU Costa Five Rivers Program is sending five college students on a native trout odyssey across America this summer. Meet Jacob Lacy one of the five lucky participants.

But that is what I did the week before last. If you worry for the future of our country, attend next year’s Pennsylvania Rivers Conservation…

Oh brother… the Snake River has apparently R-U-N-N-O-F-F. Well, most of us won’t complain if we have to play the waiting game one way or another. Guess the date that the river clears enough to fish with a dry fly, and you win… a cutthroat trout! Some folks are saying Aug. 1 is the reasonable…
