I got this in an email labeled Danskin Wolf. This is a monster. When I was a teenager I used to hunt Danskin Mountain. It was a tough hunt as it was some pretty rough terrain getting there. We used to rent rafts and white water raft through the back side of it, too. There was an area called Devils Hole at the base of it. It was scary sounding. You had to come around a bend and all you could here is a deep rumble that sounded like an earthquake. You couldn't see it as it looked like a water fall. It was a big drop. It was a hairy spot but we always made it through. We did hang up on a rock one time, that could have submerged us, had we not gotten the raft off before it sucked a side down. We had to climb halfway onto the rock just to push us off. Very pretty place with deep canyon walls. This is one scary looking wolf. Friends that still live there say that you don't see coyotes any more as the wolves have killed them off. I had only seen one wolf my hole life there and it was about 15 miles south of Danskin Mountain. It was pretty big but not that big. They reintroduced a few of those wolves many years ago in northern Idaho and they have worked there way south and repopulated the area.
One of my friends was up here two years ago and said that the last time they went hunting in the woods in Idaho, that they saw the biggest wolf tracks they had ever seen. They were in heavy timber and left, as they felt threatened and could be getting stalked themselves. They said it was eerie feeling and went to less dense timber. I guess they have become a huge problem again.
