By Natalie Stauffer-Olsen, PhD. It is always exciting when new technology becomes available that can help us understand, manage and protect wild steelhead, the mavericks of the Pacific salmonids. Steelhead and rainbow trout populations can be difficult to predict, model and understand because of their very plastic (scientific term for highly variable) life histories, from juveniles to…
The light smoke in Washington, D.C., signaled devastation in the West. In California, for example, at least 26 people have perished from wildfire, and more than 7,000 structures were destroyed. In Oregon, the Almeda fire, alone, destroyed nearly 2,400 homes and killed at least three people, with more missing
Over the course of his career in the Gila Wilderness and across New Mexico, he has cheated death more than once, spent years of his life under the stars, survived mule wrecks, fought wildfires, protected native fish and made sure his closest friends did the same.

If you’re an angler, throughout the year you can search out the elusive steelhead in small creeks, swing flies for all five species of wild Pacific salmon, catch sea-run cutthroat, Dolly Varden and rainbow trout.
I’m just going to go out on a limb here and guess the phrase “critical minerals” doesn’t mean much to you. In fact you might already be glazing over. But what if I told you that critical minerals helped you catch that monster brown you found lurking under that log – the one you pulled in with the beadhead dropper on…
Roads and other human travel infrastructure such as trails—especially those that are poorly maintained or have become decrepit—are a major cause of pollution and other degradation of trout and salmon streams.
