I will be doing the Alice/Toxaway loop with my wife and three children next week. Three of the five of us have done the loop once or twice before but I want my wife and youngest daughter to be able to look into the Twin lakes basin from Snowyside Pass. The loop itself is pretty self explanatory...
I work as an electrical contractor at Nucor Steel in Box Elder County and I have looked up at this mountain for the last ten years. On many long hot or cold (depending on the season) stress filled days I have wished I could be sitting on the top of that thing... A couple of weeks ago a friend...
I too love the Bechler area. So many waterfalls in the Southwest corner of the park and the best part is there are no roads! I made it to Union Falls a couple summers ago and it's pretty spectacular. A couple of campsites just before the falls and there is a hot spring in the river about a mile...
My son and I left Malad at 4:00 am in a snowstorm so we could beat the crowds at Goldbug hot springs near Salmon Idaho. We drove around 600 miles round trip just to hike three miles and soak for a few hours. We packed our snow shoes with the hopes of shoeing up to the springs but found to little...
My son and I headed out to the City of the Rocks National Reserve last week for some camping and little rock climbing. The flowers were popping so we decided to go for a quick hike...
I was on my way to work and I could tell that the sunrise was going to be a pretty one. As I pulled off of my exit I stopped to take a couple of pictures.

I made time to watch your video, and it was great. I made it a point to show my wife that there are other people in this world that rock "socks and flip-flops" besides me. Very few folks can pull it off, but you my friend nailed it...:)
Great trip report. This is one of my favorite areas to spend my free time. I will be up that way the middle of July. I have plans to start at Redfish Lake and end at Pettit Lake. This route will take us past The Cramer Lakes, Hidden Lake, Virginia Lake, Edna Lake, Toxawy Lake, Twin Lakes and...
I headed out for drive tonight and caught one of the prettiest sunsets I have seen in a long while. All I had was my cell phone camera so I did my best...
I had a run in with a murder of those evil black birds once before. My son, a couple friends and I spent the night in Coyote Gulch on the sand bar near Jacob Hamblin Arch. Once we dropped our packs and set up camp we headed down river to see Coyote Natural Bridge. All was well until we got back...
Some of the best mountain scenery in the country. I spend a couple of weeks in that neck of the wood each summer. I have a cousin (Tom) who lives in Stanley through the summer months. He happens to be a full time gold miner with a couple of gold claims he works during the summer and then he...
