Columbia River Conversations - Castlegar

Wildsight has created this opportunity for anyone and everyone interested in learning more about the Columbia River watershed. Immerse yourself in field tours as we camp, explore and catch up on all things Columbia River-related. Now is the time to understand the issues and impacts of this watershed that connects us, with the ongoing efforts to modernize the Columbia River treaty, reintroduce ocean-going salmon, and reshape dam operations.
