     Elk Lake is a beautiful lake in the Cabinet Mountains. This lake is so wonderful. Just can't get enough of the Cabinet Mountains. Super 8 Motel - St. Regis is a magnificent place to get some rest, and hiking along the Elk Mountain Trail is wonderful fun.
This lake is so wonderful. Elk Lake is a perfect spot to visit for more than one day, Lake Creek Campground is a perfect spot to camp nearby, and Elk Lake is not the only place nearby, Grouse Lake is a
 
   nearby lake. And that's not everything you can do here in the Cabinet Mountains. You could also explore Bear Lake if you're here at Elk Lake; it's close by, and on a beautiful day you get a delightful sight of Allen Peak from Elk Lake. At Elk Lake through the days of summer highs are in the 80's, and all through the night it cools down to the 40's. The cold days of the wintertime come with highs in the 30's while the cold winter nights at Elk Lake are in the  
               10's.
Elk Lake is right by the Allen Peak Trail; Miners Gulch is in the vicinity, and is a magnificent place. Elk Lake is frequently a relatively dried out spot; all through November this area sees the most rain, and the driest month of the year is August. You'll wish for more hours in a day to enjoy all the cool stuff at Elk Lake. Willow Creek Campground is a great local campground; as expected Grouse Creek is a pretty stream that is worth stopping at.
The Himes Creek Trail offers hiking at its best, and whitewater paddling is magnificent on Vermilion River.

Today I hiked part way up Water Hill Trail. The climb, right from the start, is extremely challenging. I like it because it gives a good workout. There are places on the trail where it is difficult to keep your footing, because the trail is so steep. ...

Lookout Pass

Lookout Pass is the original Idaho ski area having documented skiing and a home made rope tow in 1935. The local ski pioneers chose Lookout Pass because of the abundant snowfall and excellent snow quality which they could access by jumping on the Northern Pacific railcars as they proceeded east from the mining towns of Wallace and Mullan, Idaho. These ski adventurers would hop off the railcars at the summit and utilize a highway storage shed as a warming hut that they nicknamed ''Buzzards Roost''.
Lookout Pass has operated every winter season since 1935 and has a reputation for legendary powder, earliest openings, and longest season in the region. Average snowfall is 400'' of light Northern Rockies snow. The ''Affordable Family Ski Area'' has recently received a major expansion approval and has initiated the first three phases of a five phase Master Development Plan....
