SUNDOG EXPEDITIONS
Join Sundog Expeditions on a benefit trip for
Washington Water Trust on the Salmon River in Idaho.
Trip dates August 9-13
Since 1998, Washington Water Trust has been working to restore and sustain rivers and streams throughout Washington that support fisheries, water quality and recreational resources so vital to our quality of life in the Northwest. Adequate stream flow is critical for native fish such as salmon and steelhead, yet many of our streams have become flow limited as demands increase for our shared water resources. Sundog Expeditions is partnering with Washington Water Trust to create a memorable 5-day dory trip down the lower gorge of the Salmon River and will donate a portion of their profits to support continued stream flow restoration in Washington. This fully guided trip will be based out of Moscow, Idaho where guests may stay at the University Inn Best Western before and after the trip. The price includes roundtrip van transportation between the hotel and the river put-in and take-out sites and all meals from lunch on August 9 through lunch on August 13. Washington Water Trust’s Executive Director Susan Adams, will join us on this very special Idaho river trip.
Washington Water Trust improves and protects stream flows and water quality throughout Washington by using innovative, market-based transactions and collaborative partnerships to create balanced solutions. We work across the state and focus on basins identified as critically flow limited including the: Entiat, Methow, Wenatchee, Okanogan, Yakima, Walla Walla, White Salmon, Nisqually, Nooksack, Puyallup, San Juan Islands, Dungeness, Quilcene-Snow, Lower Columbia, Klickitat and Stillaguamish basins.
Flow Restoration and Protection

We create collaborative partnerships with landowners, irrigation districts, agencies and other stakeholders to produce lasting, balanced solutions by:

• Leveraging funds to support projects benefiting stream flow
• Negotiating projects for Washington's Trust Water Program
• Facilitating water use changes
