UPDATED 9/2: The latest info on the Yellowstone River Fish Kill

Yellowstone River Fish Kill

Here is the latest info. The Yellowstone is open, partially. Read carefully.

The latest info on the Yellowstone River fish kill includes updates from the governor, the guides, and FWP.

We have spoken to a few Yellowstone river guides and they all say essentially the same thing.

Holy Shit. This could happen anywhere. We certainly hope it does not spread. We also wish FWP and the other agencies GodSpeed in figuring out how to address this issue, PKD, and wish the best for Livingston, and the greater community.

I know we wish all of our Yellowstone friends the best of luck. If you are in the neighborhood, or just passing through why don’t you throw a few bucks at them. Have dinner at the Rib and Chop House, a cocktail at the Murray, get some cool swag at Anglers West in Emigrant, stop in and say hello at Sweetwater Fly Shop, spend the night at Yellowstone Valley Lodge and don’t forget about their award winning chef, and take a soak at Chico Hot Springs. They will all appreciate your support.
