Went walking on the Fishtrap Lake trail yesterday. This area is so different from the Spokane, North, Idaho area. The landscape is volcanic rock and sage brush. As the season progresses there will be more wildflowers scattered among the sage brush. The lake sits down into what looks like a crater with sheer rock cliffs. There is a lot of waterfowl and other beasties. In fact I almost stepped on the little Garter Snake as I was walking on the trail. The trail goes through the grass and rock lands and then loops back along the lake. It's about 6 1/2-7 miles. The house seen in the last photo is seen just after you come off the freeway headed for Fishtrap Lake.
Enjoying the paths, trails, roads and by-ways of the Inland Northwest by foot. Sharing where I've been through pictures and text so you can explore them yourself walking, jogging, bicycling or under whatever foot powered means you enjoy.
