For Kids

National Parks are for everyone to enjoy, so we welcome kids of all ages to learn about their past. During the school year we offer activities for school groups and everyday of the year you can come in and enjoy our junior ranger program.

Tolo Lake  

Did You Know?
For centuries the Nez Perce used Tolo Lake or Tepalewam as a gathering place. In June, 1877 the Wallowa Nez Perce paused here before their final move to the Reservation. Brooding over past injustices, warriors raided homes on the Salmon River, precipitating events that would trigger the 1877 War.
