Idaho - Day 3





































































































































After waking up from a night on the lake, we packed up our tents and backpacks and headed back down, making the 10 mile trek by 12:30. As we just retraced the same route ( since we could not go over the pass) it was not as awe inspiring as the day before, but certainly easier going down. At this point we got in the car and headed down Hwy 75 through the Salmon river valley with beautiful mountains on both sides and the river right beside us. Not a bad drive! We had lunch at Ketchum near Sun Valley and then over the pass and to I84 and back to Boise. I must say that the southern part of Idaho along I84 is nothing to brag about, looking more like west Texas than anything else. Of note we only saw 1 or 2 fields of potatos. I don't know where they hide them. I believe they just want us to think that that is all there is there. All in all it was a short but great trip and we would love to go back and take the whole family.
