Welcome to the SALMON ACTION NETWORK! THANK YOU for joining.
When Lewis and Clark walked into the Columbia and Snake River basin nearly two hundred years ago, 10-16 million wild salmon returned to spawn and die every year; it was once the greatest salmon landscape in the world, feeding a vast ecosystem and diverse human communities. Today, on the Snake River, return of wild salmon hovers under 50,000. The Columbia & Snake Rivers Campaign is a project of more than fifty conservation organizations, fishing associations, businesses, and taxpayer advocates committed to restoring imperiled wild salmon runs in the Columbia and Snake river basins in America's Pacific Northwest. Recovering this national treasure will require important habitat recovery efforts, including the removal of four dams on the Lower Snake River. It will also depend on protecting and restoring healthy habitats throughout the northwest corner of the nation, from key estuaries along the Pacific coast to dozens of mountain streams in the legendary Cascade and Rocky mountain ranges. Thank you for joining the Network and for your help to restore this National Treasure, Northwest Wild Salmon. If you are already in our system, just type your email address and click "Sign-Up" below.
