Glimpse these rare mammals in Idaho's Salmo-Priest Wilderness.
Here's your chance to see something truly rare in the Lower 48: woodland caribou, the most endangered mammal in the contiguous United States. Idaho's 42,000-acre Salmo-Priest Wilderness, just two hours from Coeur D'Alene, harbors the last 32 of these animals. The tiny Selkirk herd is a remnant from an era when caribou ranged the northern U.S. from coast to coast. After the snow melts (July) and before it dumps again (October) is the perfect time to get a glimpse of the caribou. And the best way to see them is on this 16- to 32-mile traverse.

HYCY13769R86 I am very interested in your blog, thank you for sharing.You guys, this is clearly not Michael Kors Handbags¡¯ first time at the rodeo, even if it was his first time on safari. Kors used a recent trip to a luxurious South African resort in the middle of a nature reserve to power the Michael Kors Hamilton Handbags show at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week New York, and if you¡¯re having a hard time seeing the theme in these photos, then you might want to get your eyes checked. From the prints to the proportions to the accessories, Michael Kors Classic Handbags were steadfastly ¡°Afriluxe,¡± as he called it in his show notes.The tie-dye prints were the easy standout of the collection, and they were wearable and casual in a way that¡¯s rarely elevated to luxuriousness on the runway. Michael Kors Crossbody Bags pulled it off, though, and things got even better when those pieces were accented with tonal python. The best look? A full tan-orange python trench coat, which I dare you not to stare at for at least a solid 30 seconds. http://www.michaelkors-outletsale.com

In reality, you probably have a better chance of getting struck by lightning than seeing these animals on a trip to this area. I would plan my visit for other reasons, like the remoteness and the scenery. The possibility of seeing caribou, although remote, does exist as a bonus to exploring this beautiful area.
Seariously, if viewing and observing caribou is a serious goal, drive the Alaska highway through northern B.C. and into the Yukon, go to Denali NP, or drive another remote northern road like the Dalton Highway.

Good article except it's in Washington, not Idaho.

This hike\drive to the high country is well worth the trip. The road up to the old lookout tower is nearly a jeep trail but SUV's amd Pick-ups should make it if there is no snow.
Great hunting and berry picking too.
