Rain and mud gave way to sun. Thousands of migrating Sandhill cranes and a public land pronghorn buck to cap it off. #publicland #hunting #wildlife

Over the last couple of weeks, we built 78 log jams and beaver dam analogs in the headwaters of Camp Creek, a tributary to the Gallatin River. This project will improve water quality as well as fish and wildlife habitat along 1.6 miles of stream.

It’s tempting to think of the floods that ravaged Texas last month as an isolated disaster, removed from the reality of most Americans. But mounting evidence shows no US state is safe from catastrophe, especially as we keep building in flood-prone areas.
The Texas Floods Were a Preview of What’s to Come
Mounting evidence shows no US state is safe from the flooding that ravaged Texas’ Kerr Country.

There have only been 2 catchers in MLB history who have hit 33+ HRs, 70+ RBI, and stole 9+ bases in a season:
Carlton Fisk, 1985
Ivan Rodriguez, 1999
Cal Raleigh has done it before the All-Star break.

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.
100% of his salary is paid by WA state.
Elon fired him. Share his story.

These photos were all taken on public lands and waters. When I take time to reflect, most of my treasured memories occur in these places with family, friends, or on solo adventures. As Americans, public lands and waters belong to all of us. However, (thread..)

I was fortunate to sit on the panel for this discussion. Thanks, Ben, for all your efforts to educate the country about the importance or beavers! Link to the recording: m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGWh...

I am proud of this project. We built over 80 beaver dam analogs and log jams this season to improve water quality in one of the most degraded streams in Gallatin County, MT. Next year, it's on to native plantings. The project will improve habitat for fish and wildlife in the heart of Bozeman.

The 2024 big game season is in the books. Incredibly thankful for the intact landscapes that these critters call home, time spent with friends, and the meals that will come from successful hunts.
