Map: USGS Wigwam

Drive: ID-57 is the primary approach route into the Priest Lake section of the range. It is well paved until the west side of Priest Lake north of Nordman, where several Forest Service roads continue to the north.
0.0 Two Mouth Creek Road. This road leaves the main road at Hurricane Bay and ascends toward the crest.
3 miles from the lake, a side road departs to the north and climbs toward The Wigwams.

Trail/Route: When the Two Mouth Creek Road dies out, a trail leads to the west summit of this twin-summited peak. From the saddle between the two peaks, the east summit is an easy scramble.

I would like to think of myself as a full time traveler. I have been retired since 2006 and in that time have traveled every winter for four to seven months. The months that I am "home", are often also spent on the road, hiking or kayaking. I hope to present a website that describes my travel along with my hiking and sea kayaking experiences.
