Like an oak. The stubborn Brandborgs and the fight for wilderness
by Jessica Mayer. The Missoula Independent.
I have heard tales of Stewart Brandborg since I was a young man. I’ve never met him. He still lives in the Bitterroot Valley and fights on. It isn’t just one generation though. Stewart Brandborg’s father, Guy was a prominent early conservationists. I have read that love of the wild outdoors runs in the blood (today we’d say “genetics”). It is also passed down by teaching and experience.
I don’t have many heroes, but those I do have are people like this.
