In north central Idaho, the area surrounding Lewis-Clark Resort was considered “paradise” by Lewis and Clark, the first non-Indian visitors to discover this land. And today, much of “this world” remains the same as it did then. The resort lies on the edge of the largest primitive area in the lower 48 states — The Selway Bitterroot Wilderness, the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness Area, and the Gospel Hump Wilderness — in the beautiful Valley of Kamiah near the Clearwater River.

This wild and rugged country is unparalleled for big game hunting. Whitetail deer are predominate, and some of the state’s best elk country lies in the Chamberlain Basin and the Clearwater River drainage. Back-country fishing also tops the wilderness list. You can fish a deep, thundering hole of foam or cast a fly into calmness from a shore of white sand. Steelhead, kokanee, and wild trout thrive in these flashing ripples. Uncrowded and unhurried, the lands and rivers surrounding the resort stretch wide open for backpacking, horseback riding, hiking, and river floating. On starry nights, when you fall asleep to the whisper of winds blowing through the pines and the rustle of aspen leaves, you’ll know why the Native Americans believed that spirits inhabited this country.

For explorers of this history, you can see the Route of the Lewis and Clark Expedition and stop at Lolo Pass Visitor Center for a real look at history. In winter, the center is open for cross-country skiers who head off down the many groomed trails.

To the amazement of many visitors, the nearby city of Lewiston is an inland seaport, where ships travel 470 miles from the ocean up the Columbia River. The city is at the confluence of the Clearwater and Snake Rivers, and because of the wide-open waters and easy breezes, this city of rivers is excellent for sailboating, windsurfing, and other water sports.
