One of the original River Range Adventures guides, Dakota was born in Connecticut, educated at NYU in New York City and has since traveled across much of North America in search of the next adventure.
He has guided trips in Yellowstone National Park, on the Snake River in Wyoming, the Upper Delaware System in New York, and the saltwater coast in New England and Florida.
His photography has appeared in Catch Magazine, The Fly Fish Journal, Midcurrent, On the Water Magazine, Eastern Fly Fishing, The Fisherman Magazine, and West 10th Magazine.
He has contributed stories and literary pieces to The Drake, The Fisherman, On The Water, and Eastern Fly Fishing.
Over the years, Dakota has developed many custom fly patterns that solve problems for the fisheries he has come to know.
When not guiding trips or tying flies, Dakota can be found skiing, snowmobiling, camping, rafting, and planning the next River Range Adventures expedition.
