For over forty years, the North Fork of the Clearwater River would be crammed with logs. The timber was destined for a mill in Lewiston where it would become lumber and shipped around the country. Idaho Experience: The Last Log Drive chronicles the 100-mile journey to Lewiston, life on the river, and the company that ran it all. Plus, what caused the log drive to come to an abrupt end in 1971.
