Patrick McNaughton

Growing up in eastern Iowa, Patrick became interested in wildlife while exploring parks along the Cedar River. This lifelong passion for nature led him to study at Kirkwood Community College and UW- Stevens Point. Being a traveler at heart, he went on to work in some faraway places such as the California Redwoods, the mountains of central Idaho, and the temperate rainforests of New Zealand, but the prairies and rolling hills of Iowa kept calling him back. Today you can find Patrick in the Driftless region, patrolling bluffs and pursuing trout.
