This trail along with the Centennial and Hiawatha Trails make for an area full of geology and mining history. The 73-mile Trail of the Coeur d’Alenes paved trail spans the Idaho panhandle between Mullan and Plummer. It was created through a unique partnership between the Coeur d’Alene Tribe, Union Pacific Railroad, the U. S. Government, and the State of Idaho. The trail meanders through the historic Silver Valley, along the Coeur d’Alene River past scenic Lake Coeur d’Alene and through rolling farmlands to Plummer. Twenty developed trailheads provide entry points, and there are twenty scenic waysides along the route with tables to stop for a picnic or a short rest. The Hiawatha trail, is the crown jewel of our nation’s Rails to Trails routes. This special day takes you through nine train tunnels and across seven trestles with views of the towering Bitterroot Mountains. Enjoy a day cycling around and exploring the lake side town of Coeur d’Alenes on the historic North Idaho Centennial trail. This trail meanders along the waterfront and takes in the history of the town. Local History Silver was discovered in the area in 1884 and soon a rail line was constructed to support the growing mining, timber, and supply industries.

  • 10. Palouse Prairie Section
    10. Palouse Prairie Section Section Description The Palouse Prairie Section, part of the Columbia Plateau Ecoregion, is located along the western border of northern Idaho, extending west into Washington (Fig. 10.1, Fig. 10.2). This section is characterized by dissected loess-covered basalt plains, undulating plateaus, and river breaks. Elevation ranges from 220 to 1,700 m (722 to 5,577 ft). Soils are generally deep, loamy to silty, and have formed in loess, alluvium, or glacial outwash. The lower reaches and confluence of the Snake and Clearwater rivers are major waterbodies. Climate is maritime influenced. Precipitation ranges from 25 to 76 cm (10 to 30 in) annually, falling primarily during the fall, winter, and spring, and winter precipitation falls mostly as snow. Summers are relatively dry. Average annual temperature ranges from 7 to 12 ºC (45 to 54 ºF). The growing season varies with elevation and lasts 100 to 170 days. Population centers within the Idaho portion of the section are Lewiston and Moscow, and small agricultural communities are dispersed throughout. Outdoor recreational opportunities include hunting, angling, hiking, biking, and wildlife viewing. The largest Idaho Palouse Prairie grassland remnant on Gormsen Butte, south of Department of Fish and Moscow, Idaho with cropland surrounding © 2008 Janice Hill Game (IDFG) Wildlife Management Area (WMA) in Idaho, Craig Mountain WMA, is partially located within this section. The deep and highly-productive soils of the Palouse Prairie have made dryland farming the primary land use in this section. Approximately 44% of the land is used for agriculture with most farming operations occurring on private land.

In Idaho, sagebrush grassland, saltbush–greasewood, mountain brush, and woodland occur; forests are absent unlike in the cooler, wetter, more rugged Ecoregion 19. Grazing is widespread. Cropland is less common than in Ecoregions 12 and 80. Ecoregions of Idaho The unforested hills and plateaus of the Dissected Loess Uplands ecoregion are cut by the canyons of Ecoregion 10l and are disjunct. 10f Pure grasslands dominate lower elevations. Mountain brush grows on higher, moister sites. Grazing and farming have eliminated The arid Shadscale-Dominated Saline Basins ecoregion is nearly flat, internally-drained, and has light-colored alkaline soils that are Ecoregions denote areas of general similarity in ecosystems and in the type, quality, and America into 15 ecological regions.

Nevertheless, Ecoregion 10f is not as suited to farming as Ecoregions 10h and 10j because it has thinner soils.

  • Title Text Here Two Native Gardens with Pollinator Signs on the Idaho
    Two Native Gardens with Pollinator Signs Titleon the text Idaho here Panhandle National Forests 2009 Accomplishments This project prepared and planted >40 species of plants native to North Idaho, Montana and eastern Washington in gardens at two offices of the Coeur d’Alene River Ranger District. One is home to plants which grow best in full sun; the other garden has partial shade. More than a dozen boy scouts prepared the garden plots by removing old junipers planted several years ago to border the district’s public parking lot. Now those spaces are full of native plants. Seedlings of native species were purchased from four native nurseries. Several species were grown from seed by volunteers including a master gardener. Some plants were transplanted from the national forest to the gardens. Over 200 volunteer hours were contributed to this project, most by youth ages 14-17. Two scouts made and installed custom plant identification signs from native materials. One will finish constructing the sign frames and install both 30” x 36” pollinator signs this fall at district offices in Figure 1. Pollinator sign at Fernan Ranger Station Coeur d’Alene and Smelterville.
