I was looking at some old stuff on fox and a quote from a 1924 text mentioned that the black fox from Washington had the crown of the highest price for its hide of all current species, at $1200-1500 dollars.  Thats a TON of money now AND BACK IN 1924.

Funny, this thread's timing. I was over in Tri-Cities last weekend doing some fishing, I was out in Burbank. Hit the water around 8am on Saturday and I stumbled upon two fox. One traditional reddish color and another darker phase, almost black. I was just West of Boise Cascade, along the Columbia. I grew up in Tri-Cities and I had NEVER seen one until last weekend.

I've only seen two or three as well.  One was on my elk kill in 2003 in Winston Creek, cleaning up the scraps.  It was very light gray/ silver in color, did not see any red or orange any where. I swore it was an arctic fox.  When it saw three of us on Mt Bikes, it was gone.

Very nice pics! Thanks for sharing. What cool critters.

I've never heard of the name cascade fox attached to the red fox. I saw all different colors of reds growing up in Montana. Caught and shot mostly red phase. I definitely see more black ones than red phase here in wetern WA.

Tom,
Your photos of the foxes are just fabulous! I haven't seen a fox in the wild for over 30 years now. :( Thanks for posting the photos for our enjoyment!
