The WMA is located approximately 25 miles southwest of Saint Regis, Montana near the headwaters of the Little North Fork of the Clearwater River and is most commonly accessed by driving south from Coeur d'Alene on Highway 95.
Snow Peak is home to an excellent population of mountain goats. Elk is another important species found on the WMA.
There is excellent habitat for some of Idaho’s less common bird and mammal species such as fisher, wolves, northern goshawks and pileated woodpeckers.
Excellent hunting opportunities exist for pack trips, with approximately 40 miles of trail found within the borders. Numerous unimproved campsites are available and the possibility of harvesting a mature, branch-antlered bull is good.
Backpackers, hikers, photographers, hunters and fishermen all enjoy the WMA.
