As a fly fishing and ski guide in Ketchum, I am so fortunate to be consistently immersed in the Idaho wilderness. Our mountains, our waters, the wildlife, teach me an appreciation for them with each new experience. That appreciation and those experiences are what I love most to share with my clients. Whether it's chasing trout in a beautiful high meadow without another angler in sight or slogging up a mountain to earn the turns few others have worked for, these experiences build that appreciation in all of us.
However, mother nature is not always the most forgiving, but as guides, we are in the business of smiles. And the right gear goes along in keeping us not only safe, but best equipped to maximize our fun in the backcountry and ultimately keep growing our appreciation.
