A 280-mile scenic loop through the Selkirk Mountains crossing Idaho, Washington and British Columbia — photograph sweeping mountain vistas, glassy lakes (Pend Oreille), river corridors, dense cedar forests and charming small-town scenes. Best at golden hour and during fall foliage; many pullouts and roadside viewpoints make it highly accessible by car. No special entry permits for the U.S. sections; check border rules if crossing into Canada. Expect variable mountain weather and limited services
