This trail has been called the steepest trail in Idaho. Although the hike leader has found a steeper one, it is still formidable. The views are fabulous almost the whole way and the sense of group exhilaration upon reaching the summit is a memorable experience. Be prepared for a full day and ready for any conditions. Snowshoes are recommended, but some crazies ski it every year. Round Trip, 7 miles. Elevation gain, 4,000 feet ±.
