Outdoor life
The Palouse Region also offers fishing, backpacking, skiing, camping, and biking. Its mountain ranges, the Blue Mountains, and the Wallowas, share the similar spires and majestic beauty of the Swiss Alps. We also have Lake Coeur d'Alene and Priest Lake, and the Columbia, Clearwater, Salmon and Snake rivers.
Salmon River
The Salmon River flows through a vast wilderness in a
gorge one-fifth of a mile deeper than the Grand
Canyon.
Congress has designated 46 miles of the
Salmon River, from the North Fork to
Corn Creek, recreational, and the other 79 miles,
from Corn Creek to Long Tom Bar, wild.
