The Last Catch: Conversations on the Columbia and Snake Rivers is a dynamic speaker series exploring the future of our rivers and the vital role they play in the ecology, economy, and culture of the Northwest. This month’s episode, Rock of Ages in the Columbia Basin, will take us deep into the history, resilience, and future of the Basin — from the “rock” of our cultural and ecological heritage to the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.

We’ll hear from Tribal leaders, scientists, and advocates about how the past shapes our present, and what it will take to protect the rivers, salmon, and communities that define our region.
