Everet is right. they are brookies, not dolly varden. They are in the same family but different species.
The closest thing that we have in Idaho to a dolly varden is a bull trout, but none of those in the upper snake drainages either. Some people think that bull trout, dolly varden and even arctic char are the same species, but they are actually different species, even though they can look very simmilar.
