The fabled nature of Montana's streams cannot be taken for granted. In the late 1800s many of Montana's rivers were filled with pollution and dying fish. Certain key conservation and restoration policies between 1900 and 1940 set the stage for the waters that now draw visitors and anglers from around the world. Yet, many of those same rivers and streams are once again facing devastating environmental threats.Montana is a paradigm for conservation issues that are faced around the nation and around the world. Yet, no one has ever managed to tell the story of the policies and unique policy makers who made this all possible. And, no one has therefore been able to turn back to that history as a source of direction for dealing with the ongoing environmental challenges facing streams everywhere.

Montana is a virtual treasure trove of photographic opportunities—from the high peaks of Glacier National Park, to the seemingly endless vistas of the high plateaus, to the sparse and forbidding badlands of far Eastern Montana. Gordon Sullivan, a Montana native and professional photographer, will guide you to the highlights of the state and shows you how to shoot those places most effectively and when to do so in terms of weather, light conditions etc. Further, Gordon’s lifetime in the state will lead you to many backroad opportunities and access points not known to the occasional visitor. With every tourist now having a reasonably good camera at their disposal—even in their cellphone, no one should be without this guide to capturing one of the most beautiful places in the country.
