Near Roosevelt Grove of Ancient Cedars. You must access this shoe tree from Priest Lake, Idaho, though it is actually in Washington State. Many shoes are inscribed with names and dates, and many are hanging from very high branches -- how the donors got up there without slipping on previously implanted footwear, I do not know!
