Born in Oregon’s largest wilderness of the Wallowa Mountains, the Lostine River is a critically important stream for salmon and communities that depend on it for cultural and economic reasons.
Join us on a short journey to learn about a unique partnership between the Nez Perce Tribe and a local farmer that aims to restore spring Chinook salmon, which once spawned by the thousands in this river. The success of this inspirational partnership hinges on the fate of four federal dams in the lower Snake River.
