You’re not just in the backcountry—you’re in the kind of wilderness that resets your perspective. Rapids to challenge you. Hikes to ground you. Meals that bring everyone together. Quiet nights that stretch on forever. It’s balance at its most beautiful. pc: Layne (Pepe) Parmenter #mainsalmon #tictoktraveler #giftadventure #idaho
