SANDPOINT — In August 2023, Sandpoint celebrated when Kaniksu Land Trust officials took the stage at the Sledfest fundraiser and announced they had received enough money to buy and protect a historic sled hill west of town.
In the months since, KLT finalized the purchase, developed trails on the property, and after waiting for snow to coat the 48-acre parcel, reopened the area to sledders in January 2024.
The next step? To recognize and celebrate the cultural and historical significance of the property and conservation effort with “The Sled Hill,” a short movie by local filmmaker Tanner French and KLT, debuting 6 p.m. Feb. 20 at the Panida Theater.
