Custer County

Our first stop in Idaho was a small but very picturesque state park on the Snake River. We would have loved to stay longer but the winter storm followed us and pushed us further west. We made reservations at a campground in Wendell and prepaid for a week. Woof, probably needed to do a little more research into the area. We picked it because it seemed centrally located to some of the areas we wanted to visit but it turned out we were pretty isolated and it was at least an hour of driving through extremely dull landscape to anything scenic. Just lava fields and scorched land for miles and miles. We visited Craters of the Moon and had our first foray into spelunking. A little unnerving but super fun. We also drove through Ketcham and Sun Valley up to Stanley to see the Sawtooth Mountains. The mountains were snow capped and the lakes were turquoise, it is the absolute most perfect area for a cabin.
