Black Magic Canyon is a unique, sculpted riverbed through the basalt lava fields of south central Idaho. Many folks drive through the barren sage land on their way to Craters of the Moon and miss the hidden channel carved by the Big Wood River. During the summer months the canyon is impassable because it's filled with water, but during the winter all of the flow is captured by the Magic Reservoir upstream. It makes a great winter escape.
