The Inland Northwest Trail: Long Distance Hiking, Local

September 27, 2012

• ‹ All events

Local outdoor writer and conservationist Derrick Knowles will share his idea for, and photos of, a new long-distance hiking trail route that rivals other regional favorites like the Pacific Crest Trail and recently designated Pacific Northwest Trail. The proposed Inland Northwest Trail is a an approximately 1,500-mile loop route that starts and ends in Spokane, using a mix of trails and forest roads to connect the Selkirk Mountains, a stretch of the PNT, the Cabinets, Bitterroots, Seven Devils, Hells Canyon, Wenaha-Tucannon, and Columbia Plateau Trail. Knowles recently formed the group, Friends of the Inland Northwest Trail to help support the INT effort. Read more at www.inwtrail.org
