Species Account:
I was approaching one of the Red Mountain Lakes from a boulder field descent and the Wolverine was apparently just leaving the Lake skirting the boulder field. We saw each other at the same time at about 50 yards. The Wolverine instantly scampered off upon seeing me. I have seen 4 other wolverines iin Idaho over my lifetime so no mistaken identity. Very, very surprised sighting as its been 20 years since the last!
