Bill Dvorak

Many hunters, anglers and others fought to protect Browns Canyon over a period of more than 20 years, with hunter-angler conservationists like Bill Dvorak (a Colorado BHA Habitat Watch Volunteer, featured in Scott’s story) leading the way. Thank you Scott and Bill. Wildlands and wildlife need many more like you.
