A trail generally follows the stream on its gentle course to Shoshone Lake. If you walk the trail, you might occasionally see a tiny brook trout finning in a deep, dark corner of the creek. More likely, if you’re not an angler and staring keenly through polarized lenses through clear water isn’t really your thing, you might notice a fish dart for cover as your shadow crosses the stream
Welcome to Idaho, center of Eclipse-o-Mania. Or Eclipse-o-Palooza. That last one might be trademarked, but I’ll risk it. Here on the sprawling Trout Media campus in Idaho Falls (OK … it’s the corner bedroom in the back of the house, but I do have a microwave and a poster of Lee Corso on the wall),

I often think of my life in decade intervals. The first ten years was the goofball phase; 11-20 years old involved anything with a ball; 21-30 was consumed by conservation—you get the idea. If we are lucky, we will get eight or nine of these opportunities to think about the new decade in front of
