Considering it was burnt in the Moose Creek Fire a few years back there is still good fishing in the lake and some green trees are still there. You don't need to bring firewood. Just bring a saw.
Nice! They even stocked the campgrounds with fire wood. The road is behind the fair grounds. Very quiet, beautiful lake, and clean bathrooms! Bring your bug spray for overnights!
Like Joel said, DO NOT follow Google maps. It will try to take you up a horrible road. Instead, follow the directions to the fairgrounds. Right after the fairgrounds, hang a left and follow the signs. The campground was really quiet. Went the first weekend of August and there was maybe 4-5 sites used, and we had two of them. The fishing was crazy good! Took the fly rod out on the kayak and pulled in 20 rainbows and tigers, all catch and release. Fun place!
Very nice just wanted to see after so many years ago.
One of the most pristine little lakes I've been to. With gorgeous scenery all around and some very well kept campgrounds, Wallace Lake is a true gem in the Idaho wilderness. The lake was an absolute delight to fish, with a decent range for its size. You'll find Bull, Rainbow, Brook and Tiger Trout waiting for ya. The limit is 2 Trout per person to maintain sustainability. Would absolutely recommend visiting if you're near Salmon, be aware however that it's a bit of a drive and the road is quite rough, SUV/Truck recommended, minimum AWD.
