Welcome back to another video!! Join myself, Tessa, and Lolly on this amazing hiking adventure as we explore the breathtaking beauty of the Wigwams Trail in the North Idaho Selkirk Mountains. Located on the east side of the north end of Priest Lake, this hidden gem offers panoramic views that will leave you in awe. Our journey begins with a road hike of 1.25 miles to reach the trailhead, adding an extra element of the climb and several hundred feet of elevation gain. From there, we embarked on an additional 3.75ish mile hike, navigating through lush forests, rocky terrain, and stunning vistas. The road hike was optional and if you don't have a high clearance vehicle you may want to consider starting where we did, which is a high mountain-road junction with a gate that we parked at.
With a total elevation gain of 1,888 feet for us, this trail offers a thrilling challenge for hikers of all levels. Along the way, we encountered a massive drop-off on the side of a cliff, providing both a rush of adrenaline and an opportunity to capture awe-inspiring footage. Finally, we reached the scenic overlook, where we were rewarded with expansive views of Priest Lake and the surrounding Selkirk mountain range. From a distance, one can even spot Chimney Rock and Upper Priest Lake. Join us on this epic hiking journey and immerse yourself in the natural wonders of the Wigwams.
