River Ramble - Guides Edition
In this series, we will hear from guides and outfitters from across Montana in various regions of the proposed, grassroots legislation we are currently fighting for. The Crown of the Continent Proposal would protect 200 river miles in the heart of the state and the Montana Headwaters Legacy Act would preserve an additional 385 miles (new miles of waters added in 2021 from the original airing) of river within the pristine Greater Yellowstone and Smith River Ecosystems. And with such an expansive area of land potentially protected under both bills, we are showcasing as many individual watersheds as they are all so unique and equally deserving.

Episode 2
In this episode, we enjoy some morning coffee with Pat Kane. A longtime fishing and bird hunting guide, Pat spends his summers living and working on the North Fork of the Blackfoot River. Not only is he intimately connected with this area of the world but he is working hard to protect it through his efforts with the Blackfoot Challenge. With the collaboration of conservation organizations, we have saved the Blackfoot watershed but Pat shares why there is still work to be done and how the protection from this legislation would ensure the future of these waters.
