With our Faces of Restoration series coming to a close for now, we wanted to include one more instrumental face.

This is Tim Gatewood with the White Mountain Apache Tribe in Arizona. Tim was a years-long advocate and on-the-ground man who got it done for the recovery of the Apache trout. Without his hard work, the Apache trout would not have come off the Endangered Species list (the first trout or salmon to ever achieve that status) nor be recovered to the state it is today.

This is the face of determination. This is the face of success.

Luckily there are many, many more faces across Trout Unlimited and its partners just like Tim’s to celebrate. Give them all a round of applause.
