Spanning the Idaho/Montana border, the Scotchmans are one of the last, and largest, wild areas in our region. We conduct education, outreach and stewardship activities to preserve the rugged, scenic and biologically diverse 88,000 acre Scotchman Peaks Roadless Area. We believe the Scotchman Peaks deserve congressional designation as Wilderness for the benefit and enjoyment of current and future generations.

Friends of Scotchman Peaks Wilderness Holiday Sip and Shop

The Friends of Scotchman Peaks Wilderness invites you to toast the holidays with us!

On the Monday after Thanksgiving, the family has gone home and the holiday season is just getting into the full swing; so swing out in Scotchmans style.

On Monday December 1st, the Pend d’Oreille Winery, on Cedar Street in Sandpoint, will host a special holiday “Sip and Shop” event from 4pm to 7pm, to benefit our wilderness efforts. The winery will donate 10% of proceeds from all sales during this event (including wine by the glass!). So, come kick off the holiday shopping season in “wild” style – meet and mingle with other “Friends”, do some seasonal shopping and enjoy a glass of holiday cheer!

See you at the winery!
