Orvis annually gives special awards to the members of its endorsed guides and outfitters programs. Among them are the Guide Conservationist of the Year, which this year went to Tim Linehan of Troy, Montana, whose involvement in protecting native trout in northwestern Montana has been long and unflagging. A piece on EarthTimes.org includes a fine comment Linehan made when his award was presented: “”It takes a pebble to create an avalanche.”
