Idaho's Senator Craig was an enemy of the few wild salmon left and his departure can only help their future prospects.

The Middle Fork of the Salmon is Idaho's premier river and is considered one of the top 10 rivers in America. I know why, now, after spending six wonderful days floating this special 100 miles of high mountain river.

Salmon is a city in Lemhi County, Idaho, United States. The population was 3,122 at the 2000 census. The city is the county seat of Lemhi County. Located in the Lemhi River valley, Salmon is home to the Sacajawea Interpretive Culture and Education Center, which focuses on Lemhi Shoshone culture, as well as the interaction between Sacajawea and other Shoshone and Lewis and Clark.
