Pets

Pets are often seen as members of the family and are brought on vacation. Unfortunately, with the exception of service animals, pets are prohibited in the visitor centers and trails at Big Hole National Battlefield and Bear Paw battlefield.

Where pets are allowed, they must be on a leash at all times.

Heart of the Monster, near Kamiah Idaho.  

Did You Know?
In Nez Perce country, the landscape tells stories. The lump of basalt near Kamiah, Idaho represents the Heart of a Monster. Coyote battled and killed a monster and from the drops of the creature's blood the Nez Perce were created.
