It all started almost a decade ago with three fishing friends on the banks of the Clarks Fork of the Yellowstone in Wyoming. Discussions centered around where to next with the belief that, “later turns into never”. More road trips (adventures) were planned. All three also had a lifelong interest in the study of nature and history. As the author, Jim Harrison once wrote, “The danger of civilization, of course, is that you will piss away your life on nonsense”. We decided then and there that we don’t have or want to “piss away” any more life.
