REGION: St Joe National Forest TITLE: St Joe River
NOTES: Southwest of Saint Regis, the St Joe River is a scenic freestone river with huge westslope cutthroat trout. This catch-and-release river starts at St Joe Lake and runs 50 miles through forest. Easy access is provided on the lower 33 miles by a parallel road (St Joe River Road aka FS218). Upstream of Spruce Tree Campground, the only access is via a 17 mile long hiking trail that parallels the river. The road can get pretty crowded, so think about hiking in.
