- **Event Name**: Save Wild Trout: What the Data Are Telling Us About the Jefferson Basin
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 08 Jan, 2026 at 01:00 pm – Thu, 08 Jan, 2026 at 02:15 pm
- **Event Description**: Join Save Wild Trout and Brian Wheeler, Program Director, for a public update on water quality conditions across the Jefferson River Basin.

Brian will share findings built on Save Wild Trout’s 2023-2024 Jefferson Basin Abiotic Monitoring Report, the first basin-wide scientific assessment of its kind in southwest Montana. Drawing on multi-year data from the Big Hole, Beaverhead, Ruby, and Jefferson rivers, the presentation will cover trends in temperature, nutrients, dissolved oxygen, algae, and other indicators that directly affect wild trout and cold-water fisheries.

Building on a similar event held recently in Butte, this Helena conversation will look ahead at what the report data and this year of monitoring are showing—where critical threats are being documented to Montana’s iconic cold water fisheries, such as the Big Hole, and how independent monitoring helps inform management, restoration, and public understanding across the basin. Wheeler will unveil updates to the coming years' monitor program, which will augment other collections in the basin amid unprecedented trout decline. 

The event is free and open to the public.
