Kootenai Falls: dramatic basalt ledges and a powerful, braided river gorge framed by Douglas firs—excellent for dynamic long-exposures, textured rock detail and wide panoramic scenes. Accessible via short trails and a swinging bridge; parking at trailhead near Libby. Best at sunrise or late afternoon for side-lighting; avoid high water after heavy rains. No fee; dress for spray and variable mountain weather.
