To satisfy his true wandering spirit, Spencer spent most of his adult life in his waders. He guided his first trip in Boulder creek in 1995. The next several years brought forth some amazing adventures which eventually landed him back in northern New Mexico in 2002. He has guided the southern Rockies ever since.
