Geocache Description:


The Pend Oreille River Water Trail consists of 70 miles of river flowing through Pend Oreille County, Washington. The Pend Oreille River is 130 miles long originating from Lake Pend Oreille in the Idaho Panhandle flowing northwesterly until it joins the Columbia River in southeastern British Columbia, Canada. The Pend Oreille River Valley in northeastern Washington is home to abundant wildlife and offers natural, historical, cultural, and scenic points of interest including the Kalispel Indian Reservation, home to the Kalispel Tribe the original paddlers of the Pend Oreille. In the early 1800s French-Canadian fur trappers were among the first non-indigenous people to visit the Pend Oreille River Valley. Settlers mined gold, lead, and zinc in the mid to late 1800s with logging emerging as the area’s major industry. Steamboats and the railroad played important historical roles in the economic development of the Pend Oreille River Valley. For more information visit the related website listed above. The cache is a quick park and grab.
