RMOWP Creed

I believe that the profession of outdoor reporting is a trust to be maintained through the dissemination of information in words and illustrations in a dedicated, accurate and impartial manner. Financial considerations will not influence my judgment or responsibility in the pursuit of facts to be honestly presented.
