Siskiyou Project

Siskiyou Project works to promote and protect the spectacular natural assets of Oregon's Siskiyou Wild Rivers area in Josephine and Curry Counties. Our nonprofit organization incorporated in 1983 and has offices in Grants Pass and Cave Junction.

Our seven staff members work to showcase the breath-taking wild rivers and public forests between Grants Pass and the Coast. We seek to improve federal policies that protect the region's wild landscapes, fish, flora, and fauna. We also engage with forest workers, businesses, and agencies in surrounding gateway communities, to encourage economic growth in tourism, fire hazard reduction, and sustainable forestry practices.

Our educational programs raise awareness about the ecological and socio-economic advantages of protecting the area's:

• wild salmon habitat (for Chinook, coho, steelhead, sturgeon, lamprey, and more)
• world-class plant diversity (28 species of conifers and hundreds of plants found no where else on earth)
• recreational opportunities (fishing, hunting, hiking, river-running, birdwatching, botanizing, biking, and more)

We invite you to get to know the Siskiyou Wild Rivers area through our day hikes and fall salmon-watching tours.

At the heart of Siskiyou Wild Rivers is the Kalmiopsis Wildlands, a remote, rugged and roadless mountain stronghold.

At more than 400,000 acres, it is the largest complex of wilderness and unprotected roadless areas on the Pacific Coast from Canada to Mexico.
