A River Lost, a River Found: Photos of a free flowing Snake River

Jerry White Jr., of the Working Snake River Project, will present 70 historic photos of the lower Snake River prior to its inundation by four federal dams between 1961 and 1975. The photographs reveal islands, bars, and canyons now flooded by reservoirs. The presentation will include a discussion of the geography, culture, and landscape of the lower Snake River. Presented by the Working Snake River Project and Save Our Wild Salmon.
