Clearwater and Clearwater Beach are 2 of my faves.

Back in the 80s when snowmobiling out of W. Yellowstone, MT it was -37F in the morning when we hit the trail down to Idaho Springs, ID. That’s where Clark’s Fork of the Missouri River comes out of the ground in humongous springs......and you can see the trout lying in there in rows, looking like battleships in a scene from a WWII movie.

I had to look that up because it always confuses me. There is another Clark Fork, not that far away, that heads pretty much the opposite direction (west of the divide) to Lake Pend Oreille and then to the Columbia. Anyway, thanks for the opportunity to refresh my memory. It is a relatively warm +20F in W. Yellowstone right now.
