Salmo-Priest or N. Baldy Bear? (NE WA)

<< < (3/3)

Machias:
I used to be part of the North Idaho Saddle Mule Club.  We were contracted to clear trail in the Salmo-Priest area for several years.  Since it was in the Wilderness area we had to use crosscut saws.  We did 17 miles each year.  Lots of bear sign.  One year we packed in a Hiking club for a week of trial building and trail maintenance.  We packed their tools in and out.  When we went in to pick them up they were pretty excited about a grizzly bear encounter a couple of days before the pack out day.  Awesome country on the back of a mule!

Machias:
P.S. Sent you a PM.
