Clay Ridgely

Field Crew Member

Clay grew up just south of Chicago, not really knowing what he wanted to do after high-school. He knew he didn’t want to work a regular 9–5 job, and his sister encouraged him to join a conservation corps. After moving to Colorado, he fell in love with the work and ended up continuing working in conservation in Wyoming. After experiencing these new places and meeting a lot of awesome people, Clay decided the west was where he wanted to stay and never looked back.
