SAINT JOE MOUNTAINS
The Saint Joe Mountains form a high ridge line that runs 45 miles east to west between the Saint Joe and the Coeur d'Alene rivers. The range reaches its highest and most rugged heights northeast of Saint Maries, on a ridge anchored by Reeds Baldy and Latour Peak, the latter mountain being the highest Saint Joe summit at 6,408 feet. Geologically, the Saint Joe Mountains are made up of Belt Series sedimentary rocks, as are the nearby Coeur d'Alene Mountains. Much of the Saint Joes' contorted and complicated crest line is barren of trees due to both elevation and a great forest fire in 1910.
