For as long as I can remember, I’ve had a passion for travel and love touring each new place I visit.
But growing up in North Idaho is something I took for granted.
The beauty of evergreen mountains, pristine lakes, meandering streams, and open fields somehow seemed ordinary to me.
The spectacular beauty of this region was simply the backdrop I saw every day.
I am embarrassed to admit that although I’ve lived in this remarkable region for over 4 decades, I’d hardly explored beyond my own back yard.
Like Lewis and Clark and other great explorers did centuries ago as they traversed the wilderness, I’m taking notes of my discoveries.
Whenever I stumble upon a wondrous treasure, I’ll share it here.
Whether you’ve lived in North Idaho all your life, just moved here, or are planning to visit, I hope you’ll find valuable tips within these pages, enabling you to savor your time here.
So take a moment, breathe deeply, and let yourself dream.
You’ll never regret becoming intentional about the way you spend your time in this majestic country.
Become a North Idaho Explorer today—and perhaps we’ll meet along the trail.
Here for the journey,
Carly
