Nez Perce National Forest

Description:

Located in north central Idaho between Oregon and Montana, lies the Nez Perce National Forest. Of the Forest's 2.2 million-acres, nearly one half of the land is classified wilderness. Four wild and scenic rivers and several recreational rivers have carved deep canyons into the surrounding mountainous terrain. Large elk herds and fantastic steelhead runs provide exciting opportunities for sport fishing and hunting. It is a land rich in Nez Perce Tribe and early gold mining history.

Directions:
