Our Work

Every photograph on this page is Brian Hord's own work — a decade of it. Post-wildfire cleanup and salvage in the Mountain West, storm response in the Southeast, and big removals in tight residential spaces. Stillwater Land & Tree brings that experience home to Augusta and central Montana.
