​Hello!        

 


​I'm Kylie Mohr, an award-winning journalist and avid adventuring outdoorswoman based in Montana. I write for the High Country News magazine's north desk, covering Alaska, the Pacific Northwest and the northern Rockies.

I write evocatively about landscapes, ecosystems and communities — as well as the forces that shape them — with dispatches from the forest, prairie and tundra. ​I recently completed a reporting fellowship for E&E News/POLITICO and graduated from the University of Montana with a Master of Arts in environmental science and natural resource journalism. Previously, I cut my teeth in national newsrooms before covering education, health and a little bit of everything else as a Wyoming newspaper reporter for three years. 

​I write for National Geographic, NPR, CNN, High Country News, Hakai Magazine, The Tyee, Montana Free Press, Montana Quarterly, Missoulian, Bitterroot Magazine, Powder Magazine, Western Confluence, Jackson Hole News&Guide, Jackson Hole Magazine, The Copenhagen Post, The Spokesman-Review and Teton Gravity Research. My audio work airs on Montana Public Radio, Wyoming Public Radio, Yellowstone Public Radio, and KHOL 89.1. Recent work re-published and shared by The Atlantic, WIRED, The New York Times, Mother Jones and Scientific American.
