JOHN
NATIONAL PARKS & FISHING GUIDE
John has been with Turpin Meadow Ranch for almost 6 years and has been a key member of our team. He has hawk-like “guide eyes” to help our guests spot wildlife on tours and his humor will keep you laughing throughout the whole tour. He also leads fishing trips, helping our guests get that big catch of the day and making them fall in love with fly fishing! If he’s not on the water, he’s probably behind the camera capturing wildlife throughout the Bridger-Teton National Forest. Much of our wildlife photography is shot by John, check out his work: @johnmcilvainephotography.
