Fresh Out of the Field: Cycle the Rockies
We are proud to see this year's Cycle the Rockies group finish up strong!
After visiting dams, mines, windfarms, ranches, community organizations... (what didn't they do??) this group has synthesized their experience into a new understanding of climate change and energy in Montana. Congratulations to these students - we can't wait to see where your life takes you next!
It's a WRFI blog super bloom!
New blog posts from WRFI students are popping up everywhere!


Skip on over to the WRFI Blog and check out what's new, starting with a guide for mental wellness in the outdoors by Conservation Across Boundaries student Sadie Eisner. Keep checking back for new posts!
