Cabin, River and Home Appraisals in North Fork, Idaho

North Fork at the River’s Turn

• North Fork is an unincorporated community named for the meeting of the North Fork and the main Salmon River, at about 3,632 feet.
• Here the Salmon River turns west toward Riggins and the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness.
• US-93 runs through North Fork, linking it with Salmon to the south and Lost Trail Pass on the Montana line to the north.
• Lewis and Clark met a guide called Toby in this area, and Lost Trail Pass takes its name from the expedition losing its way crossing into Montana.

Recreational and River Property in North Fork

North Fork has cabins, seasonal homes, river lots and some year-round houses, many surrounded by national forest. Recreation draws a lot of the interest in property here.

Sales are uncommon and every property is a little different, so river frontage, road access, winter use and utilities all need careful comparison. An appraiser has to look at recreational sales across the Salmon River country, not just in one small community.
