This is something I've been thinking about for a while... I'll start here and see where it goes!
A little background... I've hiked, backpacked, snow skied, snowmobiled, rafted, kayaked, skydived, and mountain climbed all over Idaho. In fact, done many of these things and more around the world. There's nothing I enjoy more than introducing these things to others! I thrive on watching, participating in and sharing the thrill with others. There's so much to see and do in this state and the surrounding states, that I thought I'd do what I can to help as many people as possible experience these things at the most affordable cost.
I can put together the simplest or the most complex package you might want. It can be as simple as cross country skiing or riding quads to Silver City, for a day, or as complex as a several day trip, with the best lodging and food combined with one or several of these adventures! It's all up to how memorable and unforgettable you want it to be.
Picture this... take a scenic drive from the Treasure Valley up to the Sawtooth area, stopping along the way for breakfast in Banks and a little later... a soak in a natural hot tub carved out of the rocks along a raging, ice cold river near Lowman. On up the road, we turn off the highway about 2o miles short of Stanley, and head up over a narrow, steep dirt road for a few miles before stopping to set up camp along a rippling creek. Wake up the next morning to hot, fresh ground coffee and a full breakfast before heading up, up and up an even narrower scenic road as far as we can drive, before we have to stop and hike the last mile to a series of crystal clear, high mountain lakes to catch a few hungry trout to take back to camp for dinner. The next day, we sleep in, break camp and head back down the mountain, stopping off at Redfish Lake Lodge for lunch, then passing through Sun Valley on our way back to the valley. This long, memorable weekend can be yours for only $99 per person!
This is just one idea. Many other options and packages can be custom tailored to your time and budget requirements. For example, a guided overnight and a climb up Idaho's highest peak, Mt. Borah including meals can be done for $49 per person. In later posts, I'll put other ideas here, so stay tuned!
