We grew up in the desert of southern Idaho, and I spent parts of many summers in the Sawtooth mountains, still my heart’s home. Yesterday, brother Mark and brother-in-law John drove, first east, then north from Sun Valley, to scout new trails for our afternoon treks. Wish I had gone with them! Here’s Mark, with a few of the perspectives from his iphone:
Bald Mountain, Sun Valley’s premier ski area, in the far distance.
Heading north, Boulder mountains in the distance.
Little “teacup” hot springs, now only warm — and sludgy. We used to ski in to this spot. Memories . . .
