The Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness Area in Idaho is one of the largest contiguous dedicated wilderness spaces at over 2.3 million acres in size and is a popular spot for whitewater river rafting, fishing, hiking, camping, and boating. The area consists of Salmon River, several mountain ranges including the Clearwater Mountains, the Bighorn Crags, and Salmon River Mountains, and multiple national forests including the Paette National Forest, Challis National forest, Salmon National Forest, Boise National Forest, Bitterroot National Forest, and Nez Perce National Forest. It was established in January of 1980 and renamed in 1984 to honor Senator Frank Church, who introduce legislation to help preserve the area.Â
