Fireside Environmental Speaker Series
The GGACC Conservation Committee is pleased to invite you to our Virtual speaker event:
A Guides Eye View of the Klamath River Dam Removals
Thursday, July 2nd, 6 pm PT
A presentation by Brandon Worthington
Hosted by Stephen Starke
Brandon Worthington will bring us up to speed on the current status of the removal of four dams on the Upper Klamath River. He will share what makes these fish unique and worth the fight to remove the dams, and what it will be like to guide and fish through the largest river restoration project in U.S. history.
We are excited to hear Brandon’s perspective as possibly the only professional fishing guide to navigate the entire length of the wild and scenic upper Klamath. The water will be forever altered by these dam removals and Brandon will shed light on the fishing experience as it relates to this dramatic, unprecedented river restoration.
