The gateway
to the Salmo-Priest wilderness area is pristine Priest Lake.
This resort community affords visitors and residents some of
the most breathtaking scenery found anywhere. Whether
picking huckleberries, fishing, hiking, or snowmobiling, you
will have the time of your lives. Great dining and
lakeside resorts make this a must see ... must stay
opportunity.
During the winter months one will find some of the finest
snowmobiling trails found in the Pacific Northwest. Miles
and miles of groomed trails as well as wide open vertical
terrain for the adventurous of heart. Deep snow and mild
conditions make this an area favorite for sled enthusiasts.
In summer the focus turns to fishing, camping and of course
huckleberry picking. Priest Lake is loaded with Mackinaw
(Lake Trout), Westslope Cutthroat, and Rainbow trout. In
addition one may find a batch of perch to compliment the
evening fish fry.
There are numerous areas to camp both on Lower Priest Lake
as well as the more secluded and remote Upper Priest. Taking
a canoe to Upper Priest offers campers un-compromised beauty
and privacy. There are
several trails for those wishing to explore the surrounding
landscapes.
Huckleberry picking has become a prime area activity in the
summer. Take a hike into the hills and fill your bucket with
prime purple berries. Most of the area resorts offer
numerous huckleberry products including jams, jellies, and
of course our favorite.....huckleberry pie with vanilla ice
cream. Make plenty of noise while you are picking......our
friends the bears like them as well.
