Historic Wallace Idaho Photo Album
| There is so much historic architecture in town and so much gorgeous scenery just outside of Wallace, that a one page photo album cannot do it justice. When you add in moods and moments captured from North Idaho industry and recreation, I'm sure this page will evolve into a layer of photography pages... with your help. |

Besides 9 tunnels, 7 trestles characterize the bike trail. |

Built for the railroad, the trestles are now geared for mountain bikes. |

Naturally, the vistas are a big part of the adventure. |

By the way, I paid $199 for my 1998/99 pass... how much does
your local ski area charge?
