12 hours and 305 miles of trout restoration in Virginia
Surveying a recent Trout Unlimited dam removal site deep in Virginia’s mountains, Dylan Cooper made sure to not just focus on what wasn’t there anymore, but what remained.
The Trout Unlimited Priority Waters initiative is all about pulling together to care for and recover America’s trout and salmon watersheds. Our vision: volunteers and staff working hand-in-hand with partners and allies in their communities to protect, reconnect and restore more than 200 Priority Waters from Alaska to North Carolina, from California to Maine.
We invite you to join us in the joyful work of conservation: collecting data that propels recovery projects, planting trees that sustain restoration into the long term, joining your community in shared efforts to build a future of clean water and healthy fisheries.
