Situated lakeside, the town of Coeur d'Alene is at it's busiest when boaters and sun-bathers take to the shores, but there's also hiking and good golfing on offer, as well as easily accessible skiing in winter.
Trail climbs to a rocky, sage brush bench then winds through granite boulders and very scattered fir trees for the first three miles. It passes Clear Lake where the angler can try for that cutthroat trout, then through meadows and ridges of granite and rock another three miles to Betty Lake which is known to be good fishing lake, also with cutthroat trout. Inhabitants of the area include elk, deer, blue grouse, pine grouse and mountain goats.
