There are lots of exciting events this month, but without a doubt the biggest event of all is the Coeur d'Alene Ironman on June 24. Several hundred extraordinary athletes will test their will and endurance with a 2.4 mile swim in Lake Coeur d'Alene, followed by biking 112 miles before topping off the day with a 26.2 mile run! The finish line on Sherman Avenue in downtown Coeur d'Alene is a must-be place for the excitement and inspiration of watching as these athletes realize their dream.

We'd love to hear about some of your favorite summer events and activities in North Idaho, so comment away!
Even with a blanket of snow covering the greens, the Coeur d'Alene Resort Golf Course is stunningly beautiful. North Idaho ski resorts - Silver Mountain, Lookout Pass and Schweitzer all opened this first week of December. We have three more months of outdoor fun, from skiing to snowshoing to snowboarding and snowmobiling. Even the ice fishing fans are gearing up for the season. So bundle up and drop us a line to share your favorite North Idaho winter frolic.
The summer tourist train has left the station. Visitors have returned home, and in a few short weeks another train of visitors will arrive to take advantage of the fall and winter outdoor recreation that North Idaho has to offer. We invite you to share what you loved about your visit this summer or what you plan to see and do once the mountains are covered in snow for skiing and snowmobiling and the lakes have frozen for ice fishing and skating.
