Public Lands & Conservation

Public lands shape the places I photograph and the rivers I fish.

This section gathers my letters, public comments, and reflections on conservation policy, federal land management, habitat protection, and access for hunters, anglers, and outdoor recreation.

As someone who spends time in these landscapes across Washington, Oregon, and the greater West, I pay close attention to decisions that affect roadless areas, salmon and steelhead habitat, wildlife corridors, and public access.

These posts document that involvement. They are part of my commitment to the lands and waters that sustain both wildlife and the people who depend on them.
