Selkirks and the Northeast
The Selkirk Mountains, a spur of the Canadian Rockies, just reach into Washington in the extreme Northeast corner of the state. These mountains, as well as the Kettle Range just to the west, are an excellent area to look for boreal species. The river valleys in this region (Sanpoil, Kettle and Columbia) hold rich, riparian habitat. More from Birdweb.
