It’s really not such a bad drive you pass Boise on 84 and head up 20 from Mt. Home, you basically drive right in to it. You could use GPS and do the expedition thing but we chose to stay within a safe distance of the road, pretty much all you see in the photos are potential kite spots depending on the wind and this place takes all directions. Plus having hot springs next to an icy river is mighty inviting pay off for the drive and pre bed time post session decompression.

All around a magical place not to far home.
