Raised in North Dakota and been living there since I was 6 years old. My wife and I, along with our three kids (Age 4, 12 and 16) area moving to the Coeur d'Alene, ID area next summer. Avid outdoors family, love hiking, mtn biking, camping. Probably the most excited about now being able chase Elk locally and affordably.I am going to miss chasing roosters right out my back door though...... I am sure I will have a ton of questions.....just stopping in to say Hi and introduce myself. Since we plan on moving mid to late summer, it looks like my hunting may have to wait until 2018. ![[Linked Image]](https://photos.smugmug.com/Hunting/2015-10-21-Hunt-with-Greta/i-n3GGmQ9/0/X2/IMG_20151021_183848772-X2.jpg)

Thanks....she is a looker. That is my only negative of these new family adventure. Not being able to get here on quality bird ground a couple times a week during the season!!
She is a heck of a pup so far.

My boy is aging out. 13 years young. Hopefully we can make it through one more bird season. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1218.photobucket.com/albums/dd411/crowrifle/Jake_zpsd731ee81.jpg)

Don't know about Idaho specifically. But, were I you, as soon as I could, I would get something resembling a residence to get your in-state status clock ticking.
Thinking Idaho requires 6 months to establish residency.

Yes, Idaho has 6 months to establish residency. We are hopping to put in an offer on a house in mid March. If it all falls into place I might be able to hunt late season.....

Welcome to Idaho!
There is some ok bird hunting ~1 hour south of CdA and gets better the further you go.
The area is a great place to live.

We have passed through the area numerous times over the years, and have always loved the area. We did a week vacation in CDA this past summer and all of us fell in love. Decided it was now or never......and we are making the move.
The is good to hear about the birds. Potlatch area??

Ok bird hunting starts around Tensed. The farming practices are poor for bird habitat over most of the Palouse. Had some great bird hunting when I lived in Moscow and Chukar can be good around Lewiston and the river canyons.
If you have the time and are willing to travel vs a 10 min drive there is opportunity.

While you might own property in Idaho, legally you have to physically live here for 6 month to get a resident license. Proof of residency is required to buy any resident license. A resident is anyone who has been domiciled in this state with a bona fide intent to make this their place of permanent abode, for a period of not less than 6 months immediately preceding the date of application for any license, tag or permit. A senior resident is anyone age 65 and older who has lived in the state at least 6 months immediately preceding the date of application for a senior license or tag....Owning real property or paying property taxes within the state of Idaho is not a qualification for residency. No one can claim Idaho resident privileges while claiming resident privileges in another state, except military personnel.

Wallace has a history. It was a mining town with the usual brothels. When I was in college in Moscow in the 60's, at least a couple were still in business. I've heard that they're gone now but I don't know if that's accurate.

No one can claim Idaho resident privileges while claiming resident privileges in another state, except military personnel. You have to be domiciled in the state. That is not the same as physically living there non-stop for 6 months. Another key is his intent to make this his permanent home. I am not suggesting you break the law. I am saying if you could get a property tied up, under lease and get stuff there. Stay there as much if not more than your previous residence. Get utilities in your name. Rental contract signed. Get your drivers license changed. Voter reg etc. All shows intent and gives a definite start date on paper for your residency.
