Photographer Doug Barnes sent me these great images from last week’s Outdoor Retailer Summer Market, in Salt Lake City. “OR,” as it’s known, is the largest outdoor sports show of its kind, and Orvis had both a booth and a casting pond. It’s a great place to introduce fly fishing to folks who already love and are involved in other outdoors activities, such as climbing, biking, kayaking, and the like.
