Idaho’s Sawtooth Mountains

Last night in our pretty campground on the Wood River, the temp got down to 37 degrees.  

Campground north of Ketchum on the Wood River
 Driving north, then west we passed through the gorgeous Sawtooth Mountain Country. Down the “Ponderosa Byway” following a branch of the Payette River, then down the “Wildlife Canyon” byway to the Payette River itself. We are camping in the mountains above the river, off-road, in the Boise National Forest. Peaceful, quiet and lovely.
