After an abrupt highdive into the icy waters of the alpine lakes, the tiny trout will grow to provide next years angling recreation to an increasing con- tingent of backpackers who combine bade country adventure with the challenge of alpine lake fly fishing. Wildlife Resources fish stocking coordinator Arnold Bagerter says almost one million fingerling trout are scheduled to be airdropped this summer. Its the only way we can effectively stock many of the alpine lakes, says Bangerter, a wildlife veteran who remembers the early days when game wardens hauled fish in on horseback to stock the remote lakes. About six milk cans full of trout was the average plant, he said. Wildlife chief pilot Chuck Morris says most aerial stocking is done early in the morning, when the air is smooth and cool. He says he and the two other Division pilots, Val Judkins and Steve Walrath, are in the air at dawn during the aerial stocking season. They test their skills and push their craft to the limit delivering heavy payloads to lakes up to 11,000 feet above sea level Continued to page 4 30-ye- ar July "n ,.f ! , J I 411.

Leland Burningham, State Superintendent of Education Kerry Nelson, State Office of 1983-198- 4 Education, Henry Jolley, Superintendent of Garfield School District, and other national leaders of education.
