Chief.... how was NW Idaho???? good fishing I bet.
BAD to the BONE Guy!! We are moving next Spring (Priest, Hope or Clark Fork/Johnson River area) if all works accordingly. That is truly one beautiful area. Both Local Folks (Very Very VET friendly) and environment. The BOSS was thoroughly impressed.

I've spent quite a bit of time there. The fishing is quite good in places. You are going to love it. Affordable, too, at least by Cali standards.

Ten years ago it was even cheaper.
Chief, I have a buddy in Bishop that loves to fish his ass off and lived in that part of Idaho for years. The only reason that he left was for work. It is there, but the pay can get sketch. Now that he is ready to retire, he might go back. Best of luck.

Sorry for thread drift Dean... passed through three different Monster fires on the way up and down.
Saw the results of a very recent one on the Westside of Pend Oreille (Bayview) when up looking at the area. It was started by two "Slob" bozo's on a boat when they supposedly accidently shot off a flare while playing around with the flare gun and partying.

Could also be embers from the Walker Lake "Slob" ignited fire as the wind has been blowing from the SE-SW.

The Chief..
Your first panoramic pic is of Clark Fork and the actual only part of the Clark that is refereed to as the N. Fork. I have to say that zone is one of the better that I have visited in terms of the moto and folks that actually do keep to themselves. Got a buddy that runs a moto-motel on the south side of the lake, the trails are world class... anyway, you getting a boat? Do you hunt? You know a TexasWheelchair is de rigueur in N.ID.

Chief.... good for you- on the move.
I don't think you, or anybody who thinks like you (freedom)- will fit in, in the new California that is now being formed by the masters in Sacramento... but I don't want this to become a derailed thread. Sorry Dean.....
All these fires!!!! makes me think we need much tougher criteria to get a fire permit.

Yup... taken from a family members home that lives a mile south of Hope Marina up on the hill. Still part of the lake officially but your right Cragar. Sorry for not being more specific. I just fly fish avidly and will be getting two boats actually... A nice 18 or so footer "John" in order to fish the smaller rivers and a 25'plus Pontoon for me, the Boss and the four kids (Dogs). The pic actually shows three properties we are interested in.
Sorry Dean....

Dean... Far Better than what we have had down here the past week or so.
Today was plain horrible. Stayed home for the first time in two months cus I can't even see across our little valley to the Fish Pond Terrace less than two miles away to the west. At one point, Hwy 6 was barely visible and that's right at a mile from my front porch.
Sucks!
Any updates on the Lundy incident?

Grants Grove area of Kings canyon and the entire Jenny Lakes wilderness are now closed.
Hume lake looks to be in much less danger but the fire is still trying to pass around on both sides.
