The Kootenai National Wildlife Refuge was originally established back in 1964 as a refuge for migrating birds and waterfowl. Today, it’s home to over 220 different species including deer, elk, moose, bear, and loads of birds. The refuge spans over 2,774 acres and is a beautiful place to take in some nature and wildlife. It’s also free and open to the public year-round. In the winter, you can go snowshoeing or cross-country skiing here and in the summer, there are a range of activities from hunting, to fishing, to wildlife viewing and hiking. There are four main trails that run through the uplands, wetlands, and forest areas. One trail that is a must-see, is the Myrtle Falls Trail.

Dress in layers
Because the weather varies in this part of the country and you may attempt a hike in the mountains dress accordingly. I would recommend rain gear, dress in layers, and be prepared for anything! Jeans, jackets, sweaters, rain ponchos, water-resistant shoes, caps, and vests usually make up our attire. You can throw in shorts, sandals, and warmer wear as well for hanging out in town during warmer weather. Don't forget to check out the weather if you have any adventures planned for the stay.
