Climate change comes for a favorite summer pastime: fishing 
By Christopher Solomon US Source: nationalgeographic 8/27/2021

The Middle Fork of the Flathead River is born in the high rocky country of western Montana near the roof-ridge of the continent. At first, the river is little more than a shouting mountain stream. For the next 40 miles its waters run fast and headache-cold through green wilderness. The river gathers the snowmelt off Muskrat Pass and Slippery Bill Mountain and a half-dozen creeks, tumbling over eager westslope cutthroat trout and bull trout as it earns its reputation as one of the beloved waterways of the American West.
 

On a warming mid-summer morning at the river, the waters curled around the shins of a short woman holding a tall mug of coffee. The woman wore a trucker’s hat pin-cushioned with fishing flies and polarized sunglasses that cut the water’s glare.

Hilary Hutcheson is a well-regarded fly-fishing guide and climate activist, much in demand across the nation. Hutcheson’s main fishing season in western Montana is brief, which means frenetic, and by late July, her voice, which is lightly scuffed at the best of times, sounded as if it were being played through old speakers.
