This is accomplished through on-line communication, grassroots organizing, community events, and spending time in Clearwater Country!

Hikes & Field Seminars
We take weekend-long adventures to wild places like the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness, the Weitas Creek Roadless Area, and the Lochsa Research Natural Area. Every trip offers opportunities to learn more about the natural history, and rugged landscape of wild Clearwater country. All trips are free and open to the public. Learn about Clearwater Country.
