ORVIS Presents: Wildness
Brought to you by TwoFisted Heart Productions and ORVIS, wildness is a poetic escape to our favorite places in
life.
Fly fishing is often the vehicle to experience wonderment and joy in the natural world. As Kami Swingle writes,
“The
trailhead has a toll: leave pretenses and anxieties here. With each step on the dirt path and each swoosh of the
fly
rod, the tempo of the high country is unmistakable. It is here that my wildness is restored.”

ORVIS Presents: Toe to Toe
Meet Marty Loudder– associate dean and professor at Texas A&M. With the help of Chris Taylor, of Fishheads of
the
San Juan, Marty has overcome the difficulties of her physical limitations due to childhood Polio so that she can
enjoy time on the water with her family. This incredible story of determination and perseverance is an
inspiration
for us all to never let anything deter us from following our passions. Marty has some amazing techniques that
enable
her to fly fish confidently and successfully. Seeing the whole family light up with joy is proof positive that
there
is so much more to fly fishing than catching a few fish.
