     If only every location had this much outdoors amusing stuff, what a great world it would be. There are some glorious whitewater spots on Clearwater River - South Fork. Lakes? Sure, Wildhorse Lake is in the neighborhood. An average amount of precipitation falls at Rainbow Lake; January is the month that gets the most snow; the driest month is July.

This lake is so wonderful. A quick trip to Kelly Creek next to Rainbow Lake is a magnificent idea, and after a long day outdoors SUPER 8 MOTEL - GRANGEVILLE is a good spot to spend a night or two. Take a hike on the Nellie Mountain Trail, and the top of Orogrande Summit is easily seen from Rainbow Lake. This lake is one of the great places here in the Clearwater Mountains.
