Museum that captures the flavor of mining in northern Idaho, from the days of the early gold rush to contemporary silver production.

A tour of the mine should be high on one's list if stopping in Wallace. The guide we had was an ex miner and was great at conducting the tour with interesting stories and demonstrations of the equipment used when mining.

Scenic drive through the mountains between Idaho and Montana.

I have no experience with the ski side of things, but can definitely recommend their bicycle rental program during the summer months. We rented bikes to ride the Hiawatha Trail from Lookout Pass. We were able to get trail passes, shuttle tickets, and bike rentals all in one place. They were extremely helpful with all aspects...helping us find the trailhead, loading our bikes, and shuttling us back to the trailhead. The folks at Lookout Pass made our bike ride one of the best parts of our recent vacation.

Loved the museum. We had the best guides telling us about the history of the railroad, the museum, and the area. The museum was packed with information and exhibits. Beautiful area also and I would like to go back and spend more time.
