Hell Roaring Lake
 | Hi, we (wife and I) walked into the lake the 3rd week of July 2008; we took the unmaintained road to about 200 yards from the trailhead. If you take this in lieu of the walk in, plan on a 40 minute drive to cover 5-miles; your vehicle (should be high-center 4-wd) will get scratched up from the branches adjacent to the road. The parking lot holds 6-vehicles...if you encounter another vehicle coming at you, there are very few areas where you can back into/get off the road to let the other pass; it is a 'long way' to back up on a challenging road. To get to the trail head from the parking lot, you will ford 2-branches of the river/stream (10 ? 20? across)...walk across deadfall with the aid of a walking stick...or walk thru the water...just below the knee. We walked in on a tuesday and encountered 15+ people coming/going on the path. Easy 2-mile walk, many mosquitoes...quicker coming back.... |

Langer Lake

Moderate uphill hike..couple of miles from road; classic rock wall mountain behind lake; nice place to backpack into..day trip or camp overnite; some wild life; hiked in here in summer and early spring when 1 - 2' of snow on ground (and melt was rushing down mountain side beneath snow...flowers growing in ground beneath crystal clear runoff (beneath snow...quite a site).Didn't catch any fish during August trips.

When Tamarack Resort opened in December 2004, it was the first all-season resort to open in the U.S. in more than two decades. Tamarack features mountain, meadow and lake, and has the distinction of being a rare destination resort with ski, golf, lake, village, and lodging amenities all located in extremely close proximity.
Tamarack is nestled in Idaho?s Payette River Mountains. The resort is located about 90 miles north of Boise, west of the small town of Donnelly on the northwest shores of Lake Cascade. Bordered on the north, south, and west by National Forest land, Tamarack sits at the doorstep of the largest mountain wilderness in the lower 48 states?the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness.
The base elevation of the Tamarack Mountain is 4,900 feet and it rises to a summit of 7,700?providing 2,800 feet of vertical for skiers, hikers and mountain bikers. Tamarack features 1,100 acres of lift-accessed terrain, a 22? SuperPipe and two Terrain Parks all serviced by seven lifts, including three high-speed detachable quads. Guided backcountry trips provide access 5,054 acr... |
Brundage Mountain

...l, Brundage has been a favorite of Idahoans for over 46 years.
Corduroy lovers rave about the resort's wide, expertly groomed runs, while their powder-hungry pals can easily hop off-trail into endless glades stuffed with feather-light fluff.
A mid-week visit to Brundage Mountain is all it takes to understand the resort's long-time claim that it is 'Uncrowded, Unspoiled, and Unbelievable'. Frequent visitors know it's easier to find a fresh line than a lift line at Brundage on a weekday. With an average of 325 inches of annual snowfall, the powder days are plentiful. Clear skies reveal sweeping views of Payette Lake & McCall off one crest, and endless mountain scenery reaching all the way to Oregon's Blue Mountains off the opposite side. The only challenge is deciding how long to savor the natural beauty before plunging back in for more terrific turns. Fortunately, with 1,800 vertical feet and more than 1,500 acres of in-bound terrain, there's plenty of time to enjoy both the snow and the spectacular scenery.
Weekends and holidays are lively at Brundage Mountain. Visitors freq... |
