The directives will come from your capitol, I.E. your urban center(s).

They are freaking out in eastern Oregon, which is somewhat like MT in that there's a lot of space and not a lot of folks. But they are still at the whims of Salem.

Hey---- word to the wise---- Hells Canyon is done April/May. The exact route we did last May is awesome, other than what's in my .sig, which I would not do again. We did it in a week of ~ 10 mile days. You'd probably do it faster. Incredible place. We saw NOBODY on the trail in the core 5 days of it.

As far as the lower Temperance Canyon (my .sig) its incredible in terms of geology. That's where this pic is from. I love vertical, that's not the thing... the canyon is choked with poison ivy. Most of the time you aren't above it, like in the pic, you are right down in the riparian zone. No real trail. We had to sacrifice our rain pants to wade through the poison ivy. That, and over 20 crossings of Temperance, some quite hairy... but as you can see in the pic, other than THAT, it's super cool.
