The south fork and the north fork come together to make the Salmon River at Forks of Salmon.

I stopped at the tiny store there for a bottle of water and asked about the snow in the mountains. Somehow I triggered the storekeeper on one of her pet grievances. I expect she has many.

I dunno why she thought I was a Sierra Club member, maybe because I bought a bottle of water instead of a beer.

As she got madder and madder, I quickly finished my water, backed away out to the parking lot, hopped on the SV and fled.

No pictures of the charming little town. I was afraid to hang around.

If you stop in Forks of Salmon, don't stay in her motel. If you do stay in the motel, don't take a shower! :o
