Wild bound in North Idaho

by sunny on November 5, 2007

Almost two years ago, I moved to North Idaho with my husband.

Let me start out by saying that Idaho is not all farmland and potatoes. In fact, north Idaho has very little farmland and all that seems to grow around here is trees and mountains. And it is wonderful!

The state is a patchwork of national forests criss crossed with hiking trails and dirt roads. The people in north Idaho are enthusiastic about hiking, backpacking, camping, hunting and just generally getting outdoors.

I keep running into the same problem, over and over, that keeps me from getting outdoors the way that I want to.

I…

dont…

have…

money.

Kayaking Upper Priest LakeThings started to change in May. We bought a kayak, and almost prophetically I told my husband, “You know, this is the beginning of an addiction.”

The summer that followed was filled with adventures on water, and when it got too cold to keep on kayaking, I turned my attention towards camping. That backpacking dream came up again.

Here I am writing about pursuing my dreams and seeking out adventures.

Won’t you join me as we are wild bound.
