A Registered Maine Master Guide with a geology degree from St Lawrence University, Kyle grew up on Moooselookmeguntic Lake in the Western Mountains of Maine. He brings a passion for wise and sustainable land use choices to the Royal River watershed.  Preserving and improving local opportunities to fly-fish, hunt with his upland bird dogs, and ski-tour motivates this passion.

Since early 2010, he has worked with many groups to educate and improve the functions of our local wild spaces. He has been active in land use and environmental regulation since 2004.

One of the highlight projects was on Arbor Day 2011, the Rowe School class of 2025 brought many hands --actually, 100 very small ones -- to the Spear Farm Estuary Preserve on the Costal Royal River in Yarmouth to plant the first phase of the Preserve Apple Orchard.

Ongoing projects include working with corporate groups who have the opportunity to give service hours to the community. If your company is looking for opportunities to “give back”, he would jump at the chance to help you design the perfect project for your group. Recently a group of 10 employees from EnviroLogix, Inc. from Portland worked on the Loop Trail around Littlejohn Island Preserve to stabilize soils against erosion and to help manage the invasive and very damaging plant, oriental bittersweet.
