Yellow Pine Country

Yellow Pine, Idaho is a little town with dirt roads, nestled right up against the largest wilderness area in the country. Mining has virtually ceased in the nearby mountains, and the population of Yellow Pine hovers around 60. But for one weekend a year, in August, the town puts out the welcome mat for harmonica fans.
