In
the Middle Fork of the Salmon River canyon in
Idaho's wilderness there are no roads to the Indian sites, remnant of the
mountain tribe, Tukudeka, the Sheepeaters. They resided in the mountains,
horseless, content to roam in the old ways. There are few trails to the failed
homesteads and old mines. The ideal access, the only route to the deep canyons
and gorges of the Middle Fork, is on the river itself.

The Middle Fork of the
Salmon is
legendary, primitive, and as a result of heroics in Congress, protected as the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness Area, the largest wilderness area in the lower 48 states. |
