Early August 2022
Neither rain nor hail shall keep the ardent angler from his appointed trail!! A great, if occasionally damp, weekend doing piscatorial research for an article on the high country headwaters of the scenic Conejos River in southern Colorado. Caught and released some bellicose brown trout and gorgeous, scrappy native Rio Grande Cutthroats. Six miles hiking roundtrip in waders and wading boots two days in a row. Not bad for a septuagenarian. Pinot Grigio elixir sped recovery. 😎 Article with details to follow.











Gorgeous fish, gorgeous country.

Thanks Chris. Yes, it’s sad to see, but fortunately spotty and forest recovering. Just hoping there isn’t a big wildfire!

Can you say when you will write the updated article to accompany the pics of your trip back to theConejos? I will be there in 10 days and would Lovett hav eaten insights.

Sorry Chris. Won’t be for a couple of weeks. Give me a call tomorrow while I’m driving back to Colorado from Kansas and I’ll try to help you.
