Alaska – 2017 Salmon Idaho

One of the objectives of this expedition was to go to Salmon Idaho.  Marian is related to Emma Russel (the sheep queen of Idaho).  We detoured through Idaho so that we could explore the Lemhi museum, and the Yearian graveyard.

 

The Salmon River canyon is something that just needs to be experienced.

 

The beauty, and the fantastic colors of the rock formations are impossible to express in photos.

 

We stayed at the Wagonhammer RV Resort.  What a great resort.  The hosts were very friendly, the park was clean, green, and great.

Fozzie found that he liked the river because he could swim and swim against the flow.  He had a great time.

The museum had this old stage coach on display out in front.

At the Lemhi museum, here’s a china cabinet that belonged to the Yearian.

This Peace Pipe belonged to EM Yearian, and was given to him by Toompompy, son of Tendoy.

 

We found the Yearian Cemetery ( had to use GPS coordinates ).
