Inland Empire Paper Company - Recreational Use

Recreational Use

Inland Empire Paper Company owns more than 114,000 acres of timberland in northeastern Washington and northern Idaho. Private timberlands like these provide many of the wood products used by the public.

Berry/Mushroom Picking

Mountain Bike Riding

Motorcycle/ATV Riding*

Snowshoeing/Cross Country Skiing
