About
Us
|
|
The
Upper Columbia River Group of the Sierra Club
represents members in eastern Washington state, and northern
Idaho including the areas in and around
Spokane and Colville, Washington, and Coeur d'Alene
and Sandpoint, Idaho. We are growing rapidly, with 1,900 local members in the Group at
present.
Our
strong conservation efforts focus on three primary
issues: water concerns impacting our rivers, lakes
and the Spokane-Rathdrum Prairie Aquifer (the sole
source of the region's drinking water); wilderness
designation and protection in the region; and
threatened and endangered species such as wild
salmon, grizzly bears and mountain caribou. In
addition, we're focused on the commemoration of the
200th anniversary of the Lewis and Clark Voyage of
Discovery, and the subsequent impacts upon our
natural world.
