The Northwest’s Gateway to Wine, Culture & Adventure
Escape the crowds. Slow down. Savor fall in the Lewis Clark Valley.
As autumn paints the hillsides in gold, crimson, and amber, the Lewis Clark Valley becomes a picture-perfect place to slow down and savor the season. Where Washington and Idaho meet, fall brings crisp days, colorful landscapes, harvest among the vines, and plenty of reasons to linger a little longer.
Sip the Harvest
Fall is a special time in the Lewis-Clark Valley AVA, home to 78+ Platinum Award-winning wines. Wander through vineyards during harvest, visit welcoming tasting rooms, and raise a glass to the season as local vintners celebrate another year among the vines. Pair your tasting with exceptional local cuisine and savor the flavors of the valley.
Golf Through the Peaks & Valleys
Trade crowded courses for scenic riverside golf, where rolling fairways follow the natural contours of a landscape shaped by the Snake and Clearwater rivers over thousands of years. Play among brilliant fall colors, dramatic canyon walls, and sweeping river views.
Chase the Fall Adventure
Take a Hells Canyon Mailboat excursion deep into the canyon surrounded by exceptional wildlife and scenery. Travel the river’s historic mail route, take in towering canyon walls and fall scenery, and experience the landscape from a perspective few visitors see.
Experience Living Culture
Connect with the living culture of the Nimiipuu (Nez Perce) people through authentic cultural experiences that share the stories, traditions, and ancestral lands that continue to shape this remarkable region.
This fall, leave the crowds behind and make room for what matters—good wine, beautiful scenery, great food, outdoor adventure, and time well spent.

A Wellness Pilgrimage to the Olympic Peninsula
Two hours from Seattle, a new kind of luxury is taking root—one built on stillness, old-growth forests, and the subtle art of slowing down.
There is a school of thought among the overworked and overscheduled that the most subversive thing a person can do is stop. Put down the phone, close the laptop, and go somewhere that actively resists attempts to stay plugged in. The Olympic Peninsula has always offered this, in its blunt, mossy way. For some city…
Seabrook Is a Little Coastal Utopia
This walkable beach town gives families room to roam, relax, and leave the car parked.
There’s nothing quite like finding an edible mushroom in the forest with a five-year-old.

The dark, wet forests in which our mushrooms grew are part of…
