#18 - Russ Ricketts - Founder, RiverSnorkeling
Russ Ricketts finds wonder underwater. And he inspires it in me and everyone he touches with his work - sharing an ethereal world that's as close as your local river. Russ has been a good friend for over a decade now. You'll find his DNA in both The Breach and The Wild. His beautiful underwater footage makes both of these films sing the song electric for wild salmon. On today's episode of SWYL, Russ gets real with me about our imperiled salmon runs here in the PNW; staying determined despite the last year and becoming awestruck by dipping your head underwater.
