Five Valleys Land Trust Presents!

As part of our (new) E-10 Presentation Series, as shown above, Grant Kier, Executive Director of the Missoula-based Five Valleys Land Trust (so named for the five [count 'em!] valleys that surround the Garden City), provides Da Twos with background history on his nearly 40 year old, five star non-profit organization that created some of the first land trusts in the country--now commonly known and referred to as "conservation easements".  Grant, along with Development Director Glenn Marangelo, told the story of the (often much maligned) Rocky Mountain white fish which, over the ages, has migrated from its original Great Lakes origins over the Continental Divide to its current Montana-based situs.
 
Thanks, Grant and Glenn, for being with us--the Tattoos, at least, have a greater appreciation for that species that our guides commonly link with other "junk fish"--no Two more, however!!
