Skyline Yurt Ski and hot springs trip, Idaho
Details
The Skyline yurt near Idaho City in Central Idaho is conveniently situated off the groomed Skyline trail, a popular loop used by Nordic skiers and snowshoers. The yurt provides easy access to over 20 miles of groomed and 50 miles of marked ski trails. The yurt is located on a high sunny knob, which provides a 200 degree view to the east, south and west. The view from the yurt is one of the best in the Boise National Forest. From the yurt deck you can see Wolf Mountain, Steele Mountain, Sunset Peak, and Pilot Peak. The open, rolling terrain below the yurt provides beginner Telemarkers a chance to polish their skills.
Aside from skiing and snowshoeing, there's also an option to visit Pine Flat Hot Springs on Payette River, which has an amazing natural geothermal waterfall that cascades into a rock walled pool.
