On July 31, 1976 conservation history was made where the fast-flowing Snake River in Hells Canyon forms the border between Oregon and Idaho. Here a ceremony is held on the Oregon rim to dedicate the new Hells Canyon National Recreation Area. This dedication prohibited any future dams in the canyon and designated the Middle Snake Wild River and Hells Canyon Wilderness Area. This is the story of how this dedication came to be.
