Despite Colorado being the most popular destination for river recreation in the country, we have some of the worst public access laws in the west. @nrsweb, @backcountryhunters, @americanwhitewater, @bonfire_collective, are producing Common Waters, a film that will educate the public on our river access rights - or lack thereof - and inspire Coloradans to take action to improve the status quo. Rivers in Colorado sustain us, supporting our way of life and robust outdoor economy. The Colorado Stream Access Coalition believes that there is a path forward to ensure that outdoor recreation on Colorado’s rivers can be enjoyed by all while ensuring that private landowner and water rights are protected.

Super fun day poking around the high country with @mountain_taco catching lil brookies. Busted out the @aquatech_imagingsolutions housing for the first time in a couple years and I’m stoked on getting one decent shot at the waterfall we were fishing.

Just out here twirling around with my new favorite reel. The Redington Classic Trout is a modern click-pawl reel with vintage vibes and timeless aura. Simple, light, and just the right amount of soothing scream when a fish takes off.#redingtonsquad #findyourwater #redingtongear #flyfishing
Strider bike chronicles. Trains are dope!

Thanks @npff.paddling! You can stream Common Waters anytime on @nrsweb’s platforms. For a state that champions itself as an outdoor Mecca, Colorado’s stream access laws are completely medieval.
two years ago, we embarked on the journey of creating Common Waters. The film’s genesis stemmed from a coalition of outdoor conservation and recreation groups seeking to tackle an issue rooted in Colorado’s tumultuous past, marked by legal battles over public use of waterways overlapping private land. My own awareness ignited during the 2009 Taylor River dispute, which saw a legislative ‘right to float’ ultimately fail, leaving the core question of public stream access frustratingly unanswered fifteen years on. Through Common Waters, we aim to pull this vital issue from the shadows of neglect, not merely to educate Coloradans on our ambiguous river laws, but to ignite a renewed call for decisive action from our elected officials, who are entrusted to resolve these hard issues for the public good.

Better late then never. Way back in 2021 I directed and shot a short documentary film titled, Pronghorn Persistence for @firstlitehunting. The film follows a wildlife biologist in Laramie, Wyoming who investigates the challenges pronghorn experience on the unforgiving landscape as they embark on their seasonal migrations.
After a successful film festival run, @firstlitehunting totally dropped the ball and never shared the film despiteour contract stating that the film would live on their YouTube and they would be in charge of distribution. So here we are. This film has been collecting dust on my hard drive for years and I decided it would be best to just share it on my tiny YouTube channel. So give it a watch and subscribe to my YouTube if you want. Link in bio.
