5 Trusted Businesses To Help Build & Outfit Your Rig
Coeur d’Alene is a very popular area to hit the trails in Idaho. Many national forests surround it, resulting in tons of opportunities to head out and explore. It’s also conveniently located between the Washington Backcountry Discovery Route (BDR) and the Idaho BDR. If you haven’t had a chance to explore a BDR, I highly recommend it. There are some beautiful trails out in the mountains.
With so much to explore, it’s only fitting that Coeur d’Alene has you covered with shops to get your rig built. We’ve compiled a list of shops for you to check out in the area, but if you have one that isn’t listed, be sure to leave it down in the comments!
