Pacific marten records in Idaho cluster around Deer Flat and Camas national wildlife refuges and the Snake River corridor, though this forest carnivore’s real stronghold is the state’s higher conifer country rather than the river-valley refuges the record leans toward. NatureServe ranks the species S3, Vulnerable, in Idaho.
Reports peak in August and November, a pattern that likely tracks trapping and camera-survey timing more than a true two-season activity rhythm for an animal that hunts through dense canopy and downed timber year-round.
