    Salmon River Scenic Byway Overview

    Published on Oct 20, 2006

    As you explore the vast expanses of rooftops and asphalt in much of the West, it's often difficult to picture it as the wild, virtually untouched landscape first discovered by European descendants in the early 1800s. Traveling the Salmon River Scenic Byway, however, doesn't require the same stretch of imagination. You'll visit locales discovered during Lewis and Clark's legendary expedition and walk in their footsteps through stunning mountain environments untrammeled by human development. Tread lightly as you encounter history, scenery and outdoor adventure.
