Day 28

We are camped at a small RV Park in North Fork, Idaho along the Salmon and the North Fork of the Salmon River. The North Fork Salmon River joins the main Salmon River here. Lewis and Clark explored both rivers in their quest for a water route to the west coast. Just north of here along the North Fork they encountered some Flathead Indians. The Flatheads spoke a language that none in the party recognized.
