Spencer Morton spent his life pursuing unattainable perfection.
That poetic turn of phrase â unattainable perfection â would be at home in a Norman Maclean novel. Instead, it was Mortonâs description of fly-fishing, the sport he built his life around. At the helm of Jackson Hole Fly Fishing School, Morton shared his love of fishing with everyone around him, from guides to clients.
At his âschoolhouse on the Snake,â hundreds assembled Sunday to commemorate the man whose impact in Jackson stretched from the outfitting community to the Jackson Hole Ski and Snowboard Club, Moose hockey and beyond. The gathering was a fitting tribute to a man whose purest skill was connecting with people.
