It is 50th in the popular series which will ultimately include 56 different and beautiful designs.
The wilderness area is more than 2.36 million acres - the largest of its kind to be located in the lower 48 states. "River of No Return" refers to the Salmon River. In the early days of Idaho's settlement it was possible to float a small boat downstream along the river, but not possible to navigate upstream given the fast water and numerous rapids.
The wilderness also carries the name of Frank Church - the Idaho legislator who was instrumental in its creation.
It is a wild place with some of the most gorgeous scenery in America, but getting a look means you will have to be up for the challenge. No roads or motorized vehicles are allowed. The splendors of this wilderness must be accessed on foot or by horseback.
