AUTHENTICALLY IDAHO
Life in Idaho’s mountains has an ebb and flow. The rush of skiing down a mountain is tempered by a relaxing après ski cocktail on the patio. The sweat equity earned hiking to the top of a peak is paid back tenfold with a soak in a natural hot spring. From the mountain to the lake, from a solitary trail to the bustling downtown scene, the mountain lifestyle here strikes a perfect balance.
The mountain lifestyle here strikes a perfect balance.
The Heart of Idaho
The West Central Mountains of Idaho are in the middle of it all. A scenic two-hour drive north of Boise, Idaho puts you in the heart of Idaho and surrounded by alpine lakes, flowing rivers, and right next door to the largest wilderness area in the lower 48, the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness.
