Hubby and I took a day trip up to the American Falls trail, N of Priest Lake in N. Idaho.



While not old growth cedar forest, the second growth on this very is very old. The trail is buff single track through cedars and ferns for miles and miles, a very gentle gradient.



In places the ferns were chest high, but I don't have pics of that.



Ferns everywhere




The trail appears to be quite old and well maintained. There were lots of these nifty boardwalks over the boggy areas.



After 8 miles of the ferns, cedars and boardwalks,
American Falls, Upper Priest River.... 1 mile S of Canada.

Here's our little lunch spot


Then back down....whee---yeah!
This trail was very reminiscent of the MRT sans lava
