7. Pierce to Wallace
PIERCE TO WALLACE – 127 miles
After leaving Pierce you’ll be entering the Idaho Panhandle and are in for a real treat. The towns in section 7 are some of the quaintest in the state, so take the time to wander around. Along the way you’ll pass by the Blue Heaven Cabin. This rustic shelter is privately owned so take a photo to remember this special place and be on your way.
Forest roads climb and descend a few times before reaching the town of Avery. There you’ll have a store with food and fuel and a unique train car with information on the history of the area.
Just north of Avery there are two route options. One goes through former railroad tunnels on a wide dirt road and the other is an easy narrow double-track along the eastern shore of the North Fork St Joe River. Both options are worthy of your time and you can do both by looping back as each one is only about five miles long. After crossing over Moon Pass, this road descends to the historic town of Wallace.
