react-router peerDependencies error - reactjs

Question

I'm trying to install react-router but I get the following error.
$ npm install react-router
npm WARN peerDependencies The peer dependency react#0.13.x included from react-router will no
npm WARN peerDependencies longer be automatically installed to fulfill the peerDependency
npm WARN peerDependencies in npm 3+. Your application will need to depend on it explicitly.

The package.json for react in node-modules shows that I use:
"version": "0.14.0-rc1",
Should I install an earlier version? It seems that 0.13.x might be a better supported version?
If that is the case, how can I install without messing up my current project?
After using
npm install npm -g
I typed npm -v and saw that the version in my project is still 2.11.13.
I figured that it might be a local version of NPM so I typed:
npm install npm
hoping to get the latest version updated locally, but still got 2.11.13 when I checked for the version.

When checking globally I can see that it is updated:
$ npm list -g --depth=0

But how do I use the global version in the project?
So the problem persists but I do believe you put me on the right track.
$ where npm
C:\Program Files\nodejs\npm
C:\Program Files\nodejs\npm.cmd
C:\Users\Roger\AppData\Roaming\npm\npm
C:\Users\Roger\AppData\Roaming\npm\npm.cmd
So I should delete one of these?

This is one of the major issues solved in npm#3. See https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/6565 for details.
Updating npm is the right thing to do:
$ npm install npm -g
